Yea but when he’s greeting Marc in Parc Ferme, he has an extra twinkle in his eye and the hairs of his unibrow are standing up.

If I may be so bold, his enthusiasm at those moments in Parc Ferm, may account for why cameras only show him from the waist up.
Now that MM has said Pramac aren’t an option I can see them going with Yamaha.
They’re about to lose Martin to the factory which will be a big blow. Martin has chased and earned the gig over two years to I’m happy for him, it may not end well but we’ll see. With him going and Morb soon to be jetsam they want two riders, who is available that would suit Ducati and be competitive for them?? Not much. Yamaha would be a cheaper deal for them and they might feel like throwing Rins in to sweeten it and try someone else themselves. The Yamaha will improve now they have the concessions so it could be a win win for them both.
MM will stay at Gresini if they get him a gp25 Alex would get a 24. I feel Gresini is a better fit for Marc himself than the Ducati team where Gigi reigns supreme, not sure they’d gell long term. Plus it keeps a spot for Alex.
If Nadia cant make that fly I can see them both going to Tech3 on KTMs. Jack leaves and Acosta gets bumped up, Raul needs results now or he’s at risk, don’t think he can get them. Pramac Yam ?
Enea to Aprilia who keep Vinales.
The rest is just a guess!

I think Miller is toast at KTM, and Binder seems to be struggling somewhat too (a definite surprise to me).
I would like to see Fabio G. get something good for next year too, I think he's getting better and better, and far better than many of the names who will probably still land a seat next year.

I don't know if Binder is riding as well as he always has and Acosta has raised our expectations, or if Binder is feeling the pressure and making mistakes. Probably a little of both. He's has crashed out of some decent positions, but I haven't reviewed the stats. Despite Pit's comments about wanting to continue with all four riders, I'll be surprised if either Miller or Fernandez have a seat with KTM next year. I sort expect somebody to sign Miller to a satellite, but I couldn't say who. Maybe a WSBK satellite.

So....the Ducatis have been the best bikes for a few years, and there is no reason to believe that they will now be the best for the last two seasons of this regulation cycle.
That means that Ducati Corse, plus Pramac will fight it out for the rider's championship.
With Aldeguer looking to go for one of the Pramacs, Martin not staying at Ducati, no potential world champion looking to sign for the other seat, the next season could be a straight fight between VR protégé Pecco and Marquez...
This could become a screenplay...
