Lorenzo Signs With Yamaha

After Ducati prematurely announced that Lorenzo had "signed" with them for next year, Jorge has now signed back on with Yamaha for 2010. That also means that speculation that Ben Spies would be Rossi's new partner next year in MotoGP is also moot. Since Ducati can't seem to setup their bike for anyone except Casey Stoner, if Lorenzo had moved to Ducati, his chances for a championship would have been slim to none. Another year at Yamaha will give him a real opportunity to come out ahead of Rossi in 2010
