Max: "My rivalry with Rossi went beyond the sport, but it’s in the past now. But it’s a pleasant memory rather than a negative one! Rossi’s lack of success at Ducati? He underestimated the talent Stoner had – he thought he could do better!

Four-time 500cc GP runner-up Randy Mamola says tires dictate riding style in MotoGP.
Former 500cc Grand Prix rider Randy Mamola told me at Valencia that Yamaha engineers have gone to Tech 3 satellite rider Cal Crutchlow and said, “Look, here’s what Jorge Lorenzo is doing. This is how it must be done: less braking, smoother, higher corner speed. You must do the same.”
“No, no,” he replied. “I can’t ride like that for more than a lap or two. It’s not my natural style.”
Ben Spies came under the same pressure to “ride like Jorge.”
Meanwhile, Crutchlow’s teammate, Andrea Dovizioso, has adapted Lorenzo’s style and is successful with it.

Suter to build the Desmosedici MotoGP chassis?
Rumours of a major upheaval at Ducati have been omnipresent since the Italian manufacturer was purchased by Audi in the summer.
But today (Saturday) several Italian media outlets have reported that the team's technical chief, Filippo Preziosi, will be ousted after next week's Valencia test and that a major shift in philosophy will take place in Bologna.
Preziosi, they say, will be removed from his position as head of Ducati's MotoGP design team, but perhaps far more significant is that the factory's ideology could also change.
Since purchasing Ducati, Audi have taken stock of the team's problems in 2012 and identified key areas with which they will make wholesale changes. The most significant of these could see Suter build the chassis while Ducati concentrate on developing the engine.

“I'm curious for Tuesday's test. However my feet are on the ground and the situation is that we will have to work on the bike” – Andrea Dovizioso.
Andrea Dovizioso will make his Ducati debut during next week's post-race Valencia MotoGP test and the former 125cc world champion is eager to get his first impressions of his new bike.
The Italian spoke with the media this afternoon about his upcoming switch from Tech 3 Yamaha to the factory Ducati squad and, while he is clearly excited about the opportunity to race for the Bologna manufacturer, he is also realistic of the task ahead.

Notice anything funny with Facebook lately?
So there’s this deal going on with Facebook…….
As you may or may not know already, Facebook is opting to increase revenue by asking pages (like Ducati.net and Ducati Club of South Florida, or maybe a page you run yourself) to pay to “promote” their posts. As a result, only a small percentage of people who “like” a page in order to know what info is being shared there, are actually being sent the updates now. We guess only about 20% of what used to be 100% is getting sent to people that “liked” us and used to see it up until a few weeks ago. Hey, it’s a free service and they have a business problem. But their problem doesn’t have to be our problem. So if you wish to remain in the loop, there is a simple fix.
“GET NOTIFICATIONS.”
Go to the Ducati.net Facebook Page or the DOC South Florida Page or the DesmoPro Page (or any other page you like to follow like say, Ducati) and hover your mouse over the “Liked” button, then turn on “Get Notifications.” That will fix the problem, at least new posts about the pertinant stuff we are working hard to share will receive a notification, even if it doesn’t always show up in your newsfeed. Hey, it’s better than nothing right? It’s Facebook’s call but like a lot of things they do that we don’t always love, they leave a door and we hope you take the time to use it.
For what it’s worth, the more often you comment on, share, and like posts on the pages you like, the more likely they are to show up in your feed on a regular basis.
Vicki, Rich and Harlyn
The little elves team that generates all this goodness for your daily Ducati entertainment!

Nicky Hayden is ready to contest the final round of the 2012 season before turning his attention to 2013 during the post-race test session on Tuesday.
"We have a couple of small updates to try, but it takes time to prepare new parts - the Kentucky Kid said - The new bike should be ready for the Jerez or Sepang tests. I don't know Dovizioso very well, but he's very experienced and I'm expecting some good ideas from him as a teammate. I'm also curious to see how the GP12 performs at this track with the new asphalt. It should be better than Phillip Island, where the bumps were a big problem for us."
