Ducati Sponsorship 2011 (motoGP)?

Thinking about the new colour scheme

Marlboro

Fiat

or

AMG Mercedes

Lorenzo was still in the Fiat colours (though I suppose he was still under contract for 2010)

No colours on Ben or Rossi's bikes.

What will an AMG Ducati look like.

Could look as cool as the Scott/JiR Bike that Dovi rode.

    i was really hoping to get rid of Malboro to be honest, and go with the silver / black AMG design, but it would seem that AMG is just going to be sub sponser.

    Saying that, Nicky picked up a nice company car from it!!

    Vale was under the knife at the time of launch.

    As for Yamaha, Im sure Telefonica have been talking to Lin Jarvis but also Air Asia are looking at moving from 125 to MotoGP.

    Good luck to them all.

    Hello Ben11Fan and everyone :)

    A AMG Ducati is definitely curious pain scheme. It would be a surprise to see it all in grey though :) But I'm sure it will be good looking :) I just having a hard time seeing that live red mixed with the classic mercedes-grey lol. Or maybe they will probably go for the black with red instead vs completely grey, but a completely grey factory Ducati ... I don't believe that will happen in MotoGP :)

    No Fiat will not follow Rossi in Ducati. The sponsor remains Malboro (and Mercedes as commercial partner), with many secondary sponsors(Fastweb,Monster,Dainese ecc). The Yamaha's sponsor will be a spanish one, i think "Telefonica" that was the Pedrosa's sponsor (in 125 and 250)

    AMG made a sponsorship announcement at the same time as launching the "Diavel" crusier concept in the States. Makes you wonder if we will see a "special edition' Diavel any time soon. I hope so, but it will be out of my price range anyway.
