    No, nothing like it!

    It will still be red, it won't be sponsored by Fiat unless they are stupid (Ducati already announced AMG Merc partnership) and Monster is a personal sponsor of VR but sponsor the Tech3 team.

    Would anyone pay $50-100 a ticket if this was the 2011 MAD bike built around a Desmo?

    I know I would

    I have good reason to believe that Yamaha have been left floundering without major sponsorship as FIAT have in fact moved their $$$ over to Ducati. Seems they are more interested in being associated with VR than Yamaha.

    Makes sense for them with the whole Italian connection...

    FIAT Motor Co.--->Italy--->Valentino--->Ducati--->FerrariF1--->FIAT Motor Co.

    Are you sure Orson? I can't see any FIAT logos anywhere in that photo.

    That photo was taken before the deal was done. Which was very recently.

    Got the info from a guy who hasn't let me down yet.

    P.S I realise those pics were only taken yesterday at Madonna di Campiglio.

    FIAT will go where DUCATI currently sits on the bike.

    The yellow looks a little lost on the bike and the leathers until he actually jumps on the bike, then it gels...

    That last photo really shows off the aerodynamic changes. The snub nose and (more) rounded tail really stand out as well as the extra cooling gills for 2011.

    Looks good

    still got the little aerofoil/spoiler thingys (technical term) on the front fairing.

    i wonder if we will see them come the first race, or if they will have been disposed of...
    Marlen1 likes; pizza, carona and his snazzy blue leathers.

    I heard a little rumour that they were actually to aid cooling by creating low pressure behind the fairing gills rather than any aerodynamic benefit.
    Ducati engines get hot.

    I knew if Rossi stuck to his yellow with Ducati it would look shite and it certainly does, sorry Rossi lovers, that is awful.

    Nicky's bike on the other hand, noice.

    At least that awesome 1000cc sound will be back and I bet the Duc sounds the best.


    Sorry about the video quality, the zoom was way out. Qualifying at the 2004 OZ GP at Southern loop
