I think Nicky will pull the plug on Ducati if things don't improve next year.
He gambled on Rossi's presence pushing improvement.
I think gambling one last time, banking on Audi's contribution.
Fair enough...

what's next for him?

Nicky *really* wants a 'Grand Slam', I think he'll come back to USA flat-track to get a Mile win.

Yep, but the 'Golden Boy' did dick to help him. If BMW steps up, maybe he'll go there.

My job is in Superbike...this is a big present from Honda to be here.

For me to compare myself to these guys would be stupid because they've got so much time on the bike.

I like Johnny.

If he can really put his trust in the tires, not get intimidated by the pomp and circumstance, and push like he does on that antique Fireblade I predict he'll do well for a gp rookie.

Gotta admit...with Stoner out, I hope Pedrosa wins it this year. Like him or not, he's tough, fast, and has had an unlucky string of injuries the last couple years. He deserves it. I was happy to see him not fold under pressure in the last race.

Plus, I'm sick of looking at JLo.

Wait, did someone just say that Pedrosa was tough?
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

He's ridden with a lot of injuries. He is tough.

That doesn't mean he isn't a little fragile though, but he can't help that.

+1. The little make the beast with two backser has taken a beating every year since probably 2007? (derby?). He's still racing even though, like Trip J mentioned, a bit fragile.

I know, I know. I was actually setting the stage in hopes that Spidey would show up and run with it.

Good luck Stoner!  I hope you win Philip Island by two minutes.

Like him or hate him, Stoner is good at what ever he puts his mind to; motogp, finding a hot wife or whining.  He's going to do it right.
