Melandri: I hope to stay at Ducati.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE <div class='quotemain'>Marco Melandri was sitting in front of me in the Ducati Marlboro pitbox, his leathers tattered and muddied after his tenth-lap crash from a fighting seventh position in the German Grand Prix.
It was a time to be delicate with a rider's sensibilities, but I said:
"Will you finish the year with Ducati, or will you stop after Laguna Seca?"
"Of course I hope to continue for the rest of the season!" he replied. "I felt really confident today."
I saw this today and I just passed it along as being taken out of context. I think that he would have liked to have stayed at Ducati, of course. HOWEVER its not working out so they are parting ways.
It still is very sad. Everytime I see him try and look happy, he just really isn't. I hope he comes back and does well just stay away from that Killasaki

This pic tells you of how he feels and I am sorry to see him like this...
He really deserves in the front row.

He's really going to have to pull something pretty spectacular to stay there.

i feel sorry for him, it must be humiliating for him walking about the paddock knowing everyone has got bets on when he's getting fired.
Tell me about it. I thought that this would be his chance to finally show his talent and drive to win and contest the title. Big shame I wish him well.
