Ducati and Nicky
 

Together again in '10

So if you finish 3rd in one race when 3 of the best riders are either not involved or have mistakes, you get another year on Moto GP. Sweet.

Nicky's a douche...

I wish Colin had Nicks ride and Nick had Colins ride. That said I hope he gets to carry Stoners development role and for once ride a tuned bike to his spec for once, not Rossi's or Pedrosa's. Really an important move for ucati as all the a listers already were tied up for 10

That's great news, I'm glad to hear it. He may not be the best, but at least he gets a chance to keep trying. I'm surprised honestly that there are as many contenders, what with the unstoppable Rossi out there. I was also glad to see an American on the podium!

i'm glad he's getting a 2nd year go... deal should have been for 2 years anyways... I figured it'd take a while for him to get settled on the bike.... but then again Nicky always does well at US GP's... to bad this isn't AMA
