I would not go this year. I would buy ticket to see him in red next year.

Reports are indicating that Valentino Rossi's much-expected move to Ducati might not include a spot for long-time crew chief Jeremy Burgess.

I've wondered if Preziosis' ego was a bit large for him to allow JB to come and solve issues that are 'rider problems'.

Too bad really if it turns out to be the case.

Of course if I were Rossi it would be a deal breaker. It's not like he needs the money, and if he balks at coming it would put the ball into Fiat/Marlboro's court, and I'm pretty sure they want Rossi.

Maybe there is no such thing as loyalty in racing...I dunno.

I'm also an idiot and broke , so everyone should disregard me.

Also wonder if JB doesn't want to retire with Rossi in a couple years, and he didn't see any real benefit to leaving Yamaha...with The Ben coming in and all.

well, i don't think burgess is really interested in throwing away a(nother) well-developed race platform to reinvent the wheel at ducati.

Probably not...

but the Duc is not wooden wheeled by any means...

and is he ready to sit on the porch and drink....tea?

He's not that old.
