not a fan of his especially but you dont become bad rider overnight and if ducati can improve the desmosedici who's to say what can happen?

its a gamble but so is everything in racing unless one of the factors is valentino.

I think Dickie's got a valid point here, I'm not a fan of Sete, but Ducati have taken a risk this year by switching to Bridgestones and to be fair have grabbed 2 wins and several podiums in the later half of the year through tyre development more than anything else (my belief anyway), so why not risk putting Sete on the bike?

Take this year out of the equation, he's been the only rider for 2 years to actually consistently give a challenge to Valentino, maybe Sete needs that new challenge like Rossi did to ignite that spark again to fight for the top spot!

On paper you look at the line up and it's probably the best in the paddock!
