Bayliss back to WSBK confirmed!

Martin Ducati Glasgow · 14-Oct-2005, 15:36

Yes folks it's confirmed finally, Troy is coming back! It's on Ducati.com and I got the confirmation letter from Duc UK today also!

I hope everyone out there is as excited as I am to see that Troy will be flying the flag again. He's got to be one of the most determined, exciting riders out there and truly a legend for Ducati.

I guess this puts to rest all the rubbish about Troy falling out with the factory. (I for one knew that was total bull anyway!)

Number 2 rider is Lorenzo Lanzi (not a huge surprise eh?) a star for the future we hope!

A real big thanks should go out to James Toseland for the effort he has put in this year and obviously for winning the championship last year. It's a shame to see him go but we'll be keeping a close eye on his career.

When I get confirmation on the other GP rider (can't really say right now, i'll get in trouble) i'll let you all know.

Martin

Oh yes Oh yes Oh yes!!!

It will be good to see the two Troys battle out in WSBK on competitive rides. I just hope Toseland can also get a competitive ride for next year.

And that's another damn minichamps bike to buy for next year. #21 999.

....I can already see a 999R Bayliss Rep on the cards from Ducati let alone a minichamps model, better get my name down for one!

Good to see Troy back, but I think letting JT go is a mistake. Troy has only a few seasons left to race whereas James has 10+ left.

Excellent news!
