I dunno, I reckon old Foghorn would look after him and gee him up when needed, and a triple is only one more cylinder than a twin, so it's not a big jump!

Maybe not such a bad move if you got no other real choice tho.
Totally agree with you all about the midfield move, but nobody else seems to rushing around waving chequebooks at him right at this moment.
Personally, I would like to see him move on, cos I've always felt his talent was hidden a little by the fact that the Duc was THE bike to have last year.

My gut reaction is no way....
The lad can't be that desperate..and let's face it....Despite all the money Petronas have, they obviously aren't lobbing it all CF's way.
For some reason I feel he may return to the now confirmed GSE BSB squad. Familliar territory, high profile series, access to MotoGP, team he won his first WSB race with etc, etc.
Put that up against Foggy and well, no choice in my view.....
Bad move for Tose - lets face it the FP1 is still in development but after Hodgeson's move into MotoGP I cant help thing he will stay with WSBK for another year.
Hard to believe that Ducati would let 'their' world champion go without a VERY good reason.
Where does it leave Petronas though? Two world class riders both leaving the same team - I think either some big cheque waving or a very good development rider is needed.
