No factory Yamaha for Crutchlow

Tech 3 have signed Pol and Smith for 2014, Yamaha with Rossi and Jorge.

Looks like it's going to be the Factory Ducati seat then? If Redding doesn't get it - I reckon he'll end up on a production RCV.

Tbh the big H should just fuck Bautista off and give that seat to either. Bradl hasn't exactly done wonders either - That is a factory bike.

Silly season I know...

I don't really understand this I think he is one of the best riders out there. Teams should be knocking his door down.

Thing is in his situation could you blame him for hopping on a factory duke, picking up a fat pay cheque, and hopefully getting a bike that will improve with Audi's backing?

What other choice does he have?

my opinion for what its worth, is that Cal is 'demanding' too much cash to ride to try and force a full factory ride, however it would appear it may have caught him out. He still has Ducati and Honda in talks, I think he should try and take Stoners shoes and prove Ducati can be ridden by a real rider, after all, whats JH done for them this year, Dovi made him look daft as well right?

According to press reports Ducati have told Hayden he doesn't have a Moto GP seat next year and only has the option to move sideways onto the Panigale in WSBK. So the slots there now, surely just waiting for Cal?!

There's talk of Johnny Rea to PBM on a customer RCV.

Also talk of Crutchlow with a prototype Honda through LCR...

[Supermoto_Fan]

Really hope something arises for cal that means he can forget about ducati. He has come leaps and bounds past 2 seasons and jumping on a ducati would stop that completely I feel. But if it's that or nothing then you can't blame the man.

If Cal wasn't such a Spastic at starts he could win a race with JLo and Dani in contention.

Everytime, Qualifies on the front row, 5th by the first corner.

He loses so much time working his way through the likes of Rossi Bradl and Marquez.

I can understand him wanting the ducati move as he would get about 10x the money he earns at Tech 3 (that ain't an exaggeration either) Cal may get the Duc to work, Stoner did, but TBH aside from being a whining little bitch Stoner was/is the best rider out there IMO, Cals good but not that good.


And Vale should be perfect on that M1 he built the bloody thing. I heard Lorenzo is shit at developing the bikes and was still using Rossi's dev work.

Stoner only won a single title on the ducati when it was an 800, then crashed it a lot. Nobody is going to magically find the 'secret' of riding one or win anything on it, even if Stoner came back to moto gp.

Fuck the Ducati, geto on one of the Hondas

They said that they had fixed the handling issue for the Sachsenring GP though, and he still screwed the start up
