Now what about this?

Ducati own Aprilia. Do they therefore own those 2 grid slots? Could they field annother 2 bikes? Could Foggy manage that team? Would that keep Xaus away from the clutches of Honda? Would he be able to bring Petronas money with him for that team? Who would pair up with Xaus? Corser? McWilliams? Shakey? Can't see Hodgson riding for Foggy. And what is it with Luis D'Antin? Why can't he get sponsorship together?

should wait to see if foggy can run a sucessful superbike team first. never had the balls to step up to the gp plate properly before as a rider so cant see him doing it as a team manager

Ian yes I think you are right. If Ducati buy Aprilia they must own the 2 slots. God only knows who'll be on them though. If I had to guess the Foggy team with Shakey and Corser.

but what about the 250 and 125 slots? Ducati badge on 2 strokes?

Not so sure that the Ducati deal to buy Aprilia will still be going through though.
