It's part of their style to sail into the wind!
The get Loris and sign that looser Sete.
Got Bayliss, so lets not get a good team mate and then we can make it hard for him to win the constructors championship all on his own.
Bless.

Lanzi could well come good next season if his confidence came back. He has suffered with the pressure / father passing away etc this season. Although i dare say Tardozzi being his manager has helped him to get another year too! Everyone deserves a second chance i seem to remember Hodgson being pretty useless during his first spell on the works Ducati and he turned out ok!

And talking of Hodgson - the comic reckons that Bayliss blocked his return to a factory ride with Ducati

Yeah I read that today!

I dunno about that though, I can't see why he'd be too concerned about it. He wasn't too worried about having Loris Capirossi as a teammate!

look what happened to toseland. won it, had a dodgy year, got dumped, this year came second. they're a fickle bunch at ducati.

Maybe Lanzi's got the right passport, can't think of any other reason.

The phrase 'he wasn't at the races' sums this years performance up nicely
