HRC Vice Nakamoto Rossi offers a factory bike

© Bridgestone - Valentino Rossi, 2013, a satellite Honda? Probably not.
About the future of Valentino Rossi, who goes behind the Ducati still early successes, is still speculation. Now reached the Italians an offer of his former employer, Honda.

"I would like to work with Valentino," Shuhei Nakamoto, vice-president of HRC 'Motosprint' is cited. Rossi went from 2000 to 2003 for Honda in the 500cc class first and then in MotoGP.

Although Nakamoto a Honda veteran, it was not the time to collaborate with Rossi. "When he is gone for us, I was in the Formula 1 program worked," says the Japanese. So it was just a detour on the Rossi's long-haul to a personal acquaintance. "Just as he drove the 8-hour race at Suzuka, I can even see him out of the box." 2001 Rossi played the race together with Colin Edwards. Although the Italians had no experience in the Superbike, the duo won the race.

Nakamotos "back campaign" has only one catch: The two places in the factory team are already blocked in 2013 by Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa. But the Japanese have an alternative proposal ". It was not possible to place him in the factory team, but I would be willing to support him in a satellite team with a factory bike" If Rossi can this idea take something must, however, be doubted.
 
Nice!!!

Awe man I just read it's only a one year extension, WTF!!! Not only does that put him out of sync with the rest of the MotoGP rider contracts, but it means he has a really short leash. Get results or you're gone next year. :mad:
