Toesland to the MotoGP Tech 3 Yamaha team? Hmmmm....what of Colin Edwards staying on with the Yamaha factory team? And if he gets demoted to Tech 3 to run with James, who will take his place next to Rossifumi?

The plot thickens....

Is Rossi still under contract for 2008?
I know he's thinking about formula 1.

I believe so. I'd like to see him finish his contract, go to Ducati for a year or 2, win it for them, THEN go to Ferrari after he earns his superlicense in F3000.Originally Posted by PhotoMotard

I don't get Toseland... Why move to a shitty ass team like Tech 3?
Couldn't he have gone to at least the satellite Duc team since he won the WSBK championship for them?
Is he some how confident that it will rain at every race next year and the top 20 riders will fall? Or maybe top teams just don't care for him since British riders typically don't bring home the bacon (sponsors), but Dorna's just pushing for a team to have a British rider...
I just don't see this as a good move for him...
