    He liked the big 990s as well, so the 1000's should be interesting

    I do hope he does return to Yamaha although I would love to see him at Honda again too.

    Either way it will be better than the current set up.

    The 15th Aug was being bandied about from those around the paddock. Perhaps they've brought it forward given all the speculation?

    They're also saying Dovi to Ducati and one of the factories running 3 bikes (as opposed to a Sic/Gresini-style factory-spec satellite ride). If that's the case, then reckon it'll be Yam + Cal.

    I just hope Cal get the ride he deserves and doesn't get shunted of it for someone who's not as good but had the right passport/sponsorship!

    Waiting for the Dovi to Ducati announcement next.

    Which leaves Cal stuck in Tech3 with or without a full factory spec ride. I reckon Yamaha may have relented and given him one. If not, maybe Gresini will get him one?
