Rossi to Yamaha!

Which makes it look like Spies didnt leave on his own accord. Very exciting for motogp if he can forget all the crap he learned on the duck.

Yeah, I was just wondering why I didnt see it posted. But a Rossi card trumps a Spies card anywhere anytime. I like ben but hes not Rossi.

AFAIK, Rossi hadn't decided where he was going when Ben left Yamaha... Obviously they wanted Rossi and was courting him, and Ben felt unwanted, so he left...

It was more than feeling unwanted. Last year Lin Jarvis threw Ben under the bus saying "he hasn't delivered on expections" or words to that effect. Hell the guy won at least one race in Assen and I think another but not sure of that.

At least on the Ducati Junior team he'll be the #1 rider and judging from the last race they seem to be on the right in finally getting the damn thing to hook up and turn.
