if the deal goes through, rossi will bring his crew with him to ducati and be ducati team 2, leaving stoner and hayden on team 1.

Isnt' he signed with Yamaha for 2010 already?

in italian "contract" translates to "something to be broken"  [evil]

The feeling i get from the Ducati backed Italians is they HATE Rossi. Suppo doesnt seem to be his biggest fan either.

they (including suppo) don't like vale, because he is their competition ... also, suppo knows that if vale was to join the #1 ducati team, he (suppo) would be out of a job, as vale will bring burgess and his team with him. so, this two team approach will negate any issues in that arena.

Dunno...that whole yellow and blue color scheme would clash with the mandatory red & white Ducati leathers. From a fashion perspective it makes no sense.

While this would make for a fun season (and maybe make me actually root for Rossi) it's The Italian Press reporting on Rossi

I expect this story is every bit as factual as Jennifer & Brad to have two headed love child stories in the tabloids here.
I own several motorcycles. I have owned lots of motorcycles. And have bolted and/or modified lots of crap to said motorcycles...

Yeah, but if it's run as a second team... plus it's Vale, he can do anything he want's except not pay taxes.

Not according to Rossi.  From motogp.com

---------------

Commenting on rumours in the Italian press of a switch to Ducati next season, Rossi was clear in his dismissal.

“Sincerely I don’t understand why,” he stated. “Especially because it is 100% impossible, because I have a contract with Yamaha. So it is not possible to go to Ducati next year, but also because I don’t want to!”
