Ducati terminates Cal Crutchlow Contract for 2015 (updated)
Ducati Corse and Cal Crutchlow terminate contract ahead of 2015
Ducati Corse announced today that it has reached an agreement with its factory rider Cal Crutchlow to terminate, ahead of time, the contract that ties the British rider to the Italian team in MotoGP for 2014 and also for next season. The two factory Ducati Team riders for 2015 will now be Andrea Dovizioso and Andrea Iannone.
Vicki Smith for Ducati.net's insight:
Not a bombshell, more like the only solution. How are you going to test the 2015 bike with him on it and leaving to become the first guy you need to pass to get to the podium?
Update - Motomatters and MotoGP.com report that there is some confusion and Cal Crutchlow will remain on the Ducati until the end of 2014

When we were at WDW we wrote: there will be three “red” Ducati on track in 2015 but after all the official Ducati might be only two: those of Andrea Dovizioso and Andrea Iannone.
Cal Crutchlow, in fact, right now is trying to break free from the contract that would tie him to Borgo Panigale in 2015.

Vicki Smith for Ducati.net's insight:
So... Do you let him go to a bike he's going to be a strong competitor on and add another step to climb? Or try to keep him happy on the third bike? I think the answer here is clear...

Ducati might launch two variants of Scrambler in November. Ducati is expected to launch one 400 and one 800 variant of its much awaited Scrambler at EICMA 2014
Vicki Smith for Ducati.net's insight:
Nice price! And a 400 (in my opinion) would be a great way to build ist time bikers brand loyalty as well as take a bite out of those massive 250 Ninja "starter bike" sales figures...
