If this is true, I would have thought Nicky Hayden and Jorge Lorenzo are rubbing their hands together!?Nicky's probably still at Ducati next year. He seems to be getting stronger, and if he can get some good results through this season then Ducati surely wont want to lose both their factory riders, especially with the Pramac boys underperforming.Rossi and Hayden back together, somethingthat has been friendly and successful in the past. Add that Stoner may not gel with the Honda straight away, ditto Pedrosa on a Yamaha. Lorenzo and Hayden would both fancy the title, although you wouldn't bet against Rossi on any bike. I'd expect Lorenzo to be quicker over the season than Hayden, but as 2006 showed, and F1 is showing at the moment, it's not always the outright quickest who gets the most points. Either way, I think if Hayden ca keep a top ride for 2012, and the electronics are cut with the 1000cc engines, we could see some fireworks.
