Sounds to me like he's going to be no more than a filler on the grid this year...

Why, because he really didn't say anything? (Or was that you're point)

Also his first real interview in a long time. Ducati put a gang order on him at the end of 2008.

gang order, like if he says something wrong they beat the .... out of him....
just busting your chops Lex.

Not so bad really. I expected worse. Of course he was last but 1 second from midpack is not so bad on a raw machine. Talked about suspension/chassis problems but didn't complain about the engine performance. Hayate racing is a welcome addition in my book.

Italians and gangs.
Freudian slip?

Being on the Kawasaki he will have the perfect excuse for poor results because everyone knows it is a questionable (aka piece of ....) bike. So, all Melandri has to do is keep a positive attitude, show a good work ethic and not trash talk the bike/team/manager/etc and he will have a "good season". Then hope to get picked back up by a Honda satellite team next year.
Nope to Suzuki to replace Capirossi. Capirossi to be kept on as team coach or something. That is what I would like.
