Just to be clear, all of this is unconfirmed, but rumors are swirling about the blogosphere that nine time MotoGP champion, Valentino Rossi, following the 2010 MotoGP season, might join the Ducati factory team for 2011. The rumor also suggests that Rossi, if he were to ride for Ducati, would sign on as a test driver for the other Italian superpower, Ferrari. According to TwoWheels, Rossi's two-year deal with Ducati would allow him time to test Ferrari's F1 cars, as well as guarantee a move to rally racing come the end of his motorcycle racing career. The rumor has gained some ground thanks in part to speculations that current Ducati factory rider, Casey Stoner, will be leaving the team at the end of the year and ride instead for the Repsol Honda team. Other rumors include the return of Aprilia to MotoGP come 2012 // [comment]
