From reading the scuttlebutt from Imola, it looks like Ducati is offering Xaus the opportunity to stay in WSB on the Duc, or go to AMA SBK w/ the Ducati Austin team (on factory 999). I hope he comes over here. AMA needs some good, exciting international talent - talent that won't turn their backs on an autograph seeking 12 year old or a camera toting TV interviewer.
