Don't rule out Rossi just yet...

If you are looking to fill Stoner's seat then your only real replacement is Lorenzo. Is he out of contract at the end of the season? He has been at Yamaha for five seasons (inc 2012) so maybe time for a change?

If Spies went then I can see both Cal and Dovi moving up to the factory squad for 2013. Maybe Spies will drop down to Tech3 in a swap for Dovi or Cal?

I doubt Rossi will move from Ducati as at this point he will want to prove he can win races and a championship on it.
