Italian maestro makes his feelings clear about moving to Italian race team
REIGNING MOTOGP World Champion Valentino Rossi has quashed rumours he was seriously considering moving to Ducati for 2010, stating he 'does not want to' race for the Italian manufacturer.There has been much speculation over the last few months that the Ducati MotoGP team, along with the backing of the squad's title sponsor Malrboro, have been working on luring the eight-time world champ away from Yamaha with a big money offer. Rossi, however, has denied the allegations. "Honestly, I do not understand why," said Rossi, ahead of this weekend's Australian GP. "It is 100 percent impossible because I have a contract with Yamaha. Therefore, it is not possible to go to Ducati next year, but also because I do not want to!"

Why would he want to leave the bike he's developed into the best all around in the world? Ducati is a mess that only Stoner can ride. Its a career killer. Ask the other 90% of riders who have swung a leg over it and seen their results come to nothing. Ducati would have to commit to redeveloping that bike into something that everyone can have success on, not just one man. That is the mark of a good bike.
