Of all the crazy things in Moto GP but to hear Pramac Ducati are giving the boot to Danilo Petrucci at the end of the season to me it’s nuts.. I guess it’s down to what money the rider can bring in, but for a guy who has out ridden so many stars and put works Ducati teams to shame it seems a totally poor situation all round... x
Hasn’t he got a possible factory option written in, obviously results dependant. When does JLo’s contract end?
Yes, when he was interviewed at the weekend he said he had an option with the factory team for next season. Steve
Well he certainly didn’t look a happy Luigi over it.. the factory option is prob going to be as a test rider..

Sorry , can't take to the guy, did not like his underhand tac tics when him and Redding were after the gp 17 bike to ride.
Petrucci binned Redding at Aragon during their fight for the GP17 next season. Rumour has it this was also after Petrucci specifically asking the question as to what would happen after “hard riding” between teammates.
Ran him off track a couple of times ,smiling assassin . https://www.autosport.com/motogp/news/126355/redding-slates-idiot-teammate-petrucci
And Marquez ish .... and Lorenzo ish ....... and Iannone ish and .... and Simonchelli ish and if you want to go back further, Biaggi ish. You can’t just single one person out. There have been rivalries throughout racing history, some of it aggressive, some of it bad judgement and some of it deliberate. I remember Schumacher and Deamon Hill in Australia, that “incident” was blatant and totally unprofessional and nothing was done. Until riders and drivers are properly penalised it’ll not stop. Andy
