Good luck Cal Crutchlow, go ahead and follow your ex-teammate Dovi from a semi-competitive Tech 3 seat to Ducati. That's what you wanted right? A factory spot? Hope you like green pockets instead of gold trophies... Hopefully Nicky picks up the Honda Grisini ride or a competitive WSBK seat....

I'll take the flaming for this:
Fucking seriously?! Why would you not look elsewhere at this point if you're DucAudi? Hayden didn't have to re-sign in 2010 did he? He made a choice to re-sign and take their $$. You know what they did to reward him for that choice? They paid him. Pretty damn well from my understanding. What more do they owe him?

You would hope a (somewhat?) competitive bike after 6 years???

I believe that everyone else on a Duc in that time span was on the same uncompetitive bike. Where is the BS about this again?

He took Ducati's money (3 times, if I remember correctly). Clearly their $$ was competitive.Or was it the only Factory ride he had a shot at in GP?
