Preziosi: "Don't expect miracles any time soon"

Filippo Preziosi offers his thoughts about Ducati's problems; how they got there, what they are doing about them, and what to expect in the future.

Preziosi: we started over with Rossi

Disappointing I guess but not really surprised, what a waste of a season though

........I not totally convinced that Ducati thought that VR would get on the Desmosedici and win, win, win....however I'm sure they thought he would do much better than running mid-pack.....occasionally contesting for the win or podium.
I would hate to see Ducati go to a twin spar in an attempt to get VR or NH on the podium...

2012 is as good a time as can be to start with a brand new bike with the new rules and all.

The only problem is Yamaha and Honda are basically already on the money...

Hopefully they get a really good development rider to really run a shitload of laps on the new bike before the start of the season.

Barring any miracle this season has been a total disaster. I think we all thought that it might be a rough start, but I know I was thinking we would see some podiums and maybe a win here and there. Embarrassing to say the least.
