Lorenzo's primary value to Ducati is as a development rider. He'll be able to work with their engineers to adjust and sort the bike for cornering speed, which is the weak area for Ducati. Lorenzo will not change, the bike will be changed to meet Lorenzo's needs. If it takes one or two years, no problem. Good business plan.
I'm most curious about Lorenzo's chances for next year. The Ducati is a very different bike to ride from the Yamaha and does not lend itself well to his smooth riding style, or so say the "experts". I was hoping that Vinales would stay with Suzuki and that Pedrosa would team with Rossi at Yamaha.
With the success in WSB that Kawasaki is having and the wealth of that very diversified corporation, will Kawasaki soon get back into Motogp? I hope they will.
Next season should be even more exciting than this year.
Suzuki currently makes a better racebike than Ducati in terms of pure handling and is working on getting more power.
Less power in Iannone's right hand is not a bad thing, he'll need to work on his cornering.
