Another Brit snatches defeat from the jaws of victory.

I hope he does get the duke to work, lets face it there gonna have to throw the kitchen sink at it to get it to work!!

[Doovy]

I really hope it's not a Rossi/Dovi repeat.

I bet Andrea is kicking himself every morning with regards to the races. Granted, the money can compensate..

Another career floundering 'pon the Duke. Still Cal will get paid in full for competing to be 6th / 7th and First Ducati home.

should be interesting, i reckon he may get somewhere with this.

Yep, he definitely needs a manager.

Pretty good move really.
Get paid loads of money, everybody knows the duke is hopeless and blames the bike.
Get some good results and suddenly he's a hero that has done the impossible.

I predict a season of being frustrated carrying more corner speed but unable to outbrake Dovi fighting over 7th-8th place (maybe )

So it's him and Dovi again? Both riders who are able to suppress the 'Fear', unlike Hayden. With the bigger purse offered by Audi it could add upto some good racing in 2014, with 3 instead of 2 manufacturers battling for the bubbly.

Or he'll bash himself to pieces and spend the remainder of the season never quite overcoming the 'Fear'.

2014....Big year for Cal.

His girlfriend looks smart and practical. He's possibly looking to upgrade her to some erratic Latin mentalist who's all implants and eyelashes.

He had no factory ride at yamaha nor honda. if neither were willing to give him a factory spec bike he'd be left with a choice of taking a satalite ride and hoping for something when either one of the top 4 retires, or that suzuki are competitive, or that ducati gets their shit together. So going to Ducati now with a fat sack of cash and hoping for them to become competitive makes sense.

[jjdugen]

Stoner could ride the Duke, maybe, just maybe..........

At least they gave him a factory bike even though its fighting with CRT's

Hopefully Audi have something planned, not really for Cal but for the series. Would be nice to have more manufacturers fighting for the title

Think of all the extra R&D Spidi will get to do from his additional crashing.

Seems like a daft move to me, mainly thinking of the monies. I suppose he could cruise around on the Ducati for a few years. Proclaim it to be crap, then retire and spend the time boffing his missus.

It'll be entertaining, he kicks off enough at yamaha quite openly about having old bikes/parts etc

if/when he does it at Ducati they won't know how to handle him.

Career suicide I fear. Oh well, at least we've still got Bradley Smith...

He falls off the sweet handling Yamaha way too much. Can't see this improving on the Ducati
