Canepa makes his case.

Niccolò Canepa showed exactly why he is being increasingly touted as a potential replacement for Troy Bayliss at Xerox Ducati next year by going second fastest in testing at Vallelunga.

Why did i see this coming? Suddenly Xaus and Max are miles away from the factory boys ... after scoring a 1-2 at misano ...

That is factory vs non factory for you.

Three factory Ducati's in the top 4.

The factory boys also have some new evolution Pirelli tyres to test that the non factory teams do not get.

Ducati took 500 rpm off the satellites a couple races ago for "mechanical " then they gave them back at Misano

the story is after Qatar Ducati took 500 rpm off the sterilgarda bikes via ECU. They gt them back in Utah (back to 11500-11600). According to Ducati, for mechanical safety reasons
I dont have a link but i read it from a very reliable source

Why is it only Ducati who get run down about supplying satelite teams with equipment that is below the factory team? Name me one manufacturer who supplies satelitew teams with full factory equipment. In MotoGP when Honda give a rider a contract that says full factory equipment they don't deliver it. Just ask Marco in 2007!

Reality Check: there are a few subjects in the motorbike rworld that open the door to hatred comments and incendiary words of hate: Harley Davidson being one of them, Ducati being another. So, don't be surprised: all the anti-Ducati, anti-SBK rules and anti -Stoner agro is only that...
