IF YOU'VE kept an eye on the latest MotoGP gossip then you'll probably know various media sources are breaking the news that Valentino Rossi has signed to ride for Ducati from 2011 onwards.
But despite the persistant rumours surrounding the Italian's move to Ducati, 'nothing's concrete' according to leading MotoGP correspondent Mike Scott. In fact Scott believes the only move that is certain is Casey Stoner to Honda in 2011.
But the understandable intensity of the gossip surrounding the nine-time world champion's planned defection to Ducati has been increasing over the last few weeks. The rumours gathered momentum after the news Casey Stoner's Ducati technicians had been told to expect redundacy at the end of the season; the most likely catalyst for Ducati's decision to lay-off its team being Rossi and his loyal gang of technicians moving en masse to the squad for 2011.
