Petrucci

Post by wull »

It’s looking more likely that he’ll be going to WSBK but nothing conclusive as of yet.

Some mention of it as well this weekend at Philip Island as the commentators were saying it was probably Fores last race in WSB as he wouldnt get the Barni seat next season.

I like Petrux, would be good to see him in the WSB paddock rather than AMA although Ducati America want to keep him there

Maybe Ducati are planning on putting the combined weight issue to bed by winning with the lightest rider and the heaviest.

According to Ducati's man of bread, Paolo Ciabatta, sorry Ciabatti, AMA will offer Petrux more money than Ducati can offer in WSB, so it's good to see that he's more motivated by testing himself against those who are the best in the world (on a production bike), rather than topping up his retirement fund.

The wages from either party will be considerably better than his Polizia renumeration. :thumbup:
