This has to be the coolest thing I've heard of in a while. It's like a Ducati all-star game. The showdown takes place in Misano and pits former and current Ducati racers all on spec Panigale V4s to duke it out. Riders include Lorenzo, Dovi, Stoner, Davies, Melandri, Miller, Petrucci, Bayliss, Checa, Simeon, Rabat, Bautista, Abraham, Michael Rinaldi, Xavi Fores and Lorenzo Zanetti. This is awesome! http://www.speedweek.com/sbk/news/128916/MotoGP-gegen-Superbike-WM-Das-Mega-Duell-in-Misano.html
I wonder if any of the current factory Riders will really put a hundred percent into it? Can't see them risk in a championship or even MotoGP wins for a for fun race.
While that is true, I dont think Dovi wants to get beat by Rabat. Or Davies get beat by retired Checa.

I would love to attend that event. And I don't usually like the Ducatisti themselves. That's a heck of a PR stunt, just wow !
Man... it’d be sweet to win one of those auctions... I wonder how high the bidding will go Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
