DONE DEAL, Hayden rides Ducati next year

And what again is your point? There is none. As usual you're just shooting blanks.

I'm not sure Ducati had many options besides resigning Hayden. Not many others in the paddock are clamoring to ride a Duc nor were any of the rookies coming up seeing it as a viable option (I mean not their rookie season, but looking after).

Hayden is getting as good as-good-as-you-can-get non-Stoner results with the bike. He hasn't failed miserably like Melandri last year. Kudos to him for getting another year and maybe he'll get even better on it next year.
