Max to stay at Aprilia for another two years.

At last Biaggi has made his mind up and signed up to the Aprilia WSB team for another two years.

Maybe he's starting to learn not to bite the hand that feeds. I hope that Leon is going to continue next season as well. Biaggi's best years have been with Aprilia. I hope Aprilia goes to dance in the MotoGP. If that be the case then that might be Max's entry back into the GP again... Nice to see a Biaggi Rossi battle again. Remember the punch up in the portapotty after a race? Good times, good times....

Hmm,I think we are more likely to see a Rossi/Biaggi race on WSBK bikes.In a recent interview,Max said that he had no desire to return to MotoGP and Rossi is desparate to compete in a WSBK race.Remember he wanted to take on Troy Bayliss a couple of years ago.
I cant imagine 'Prilla have the budget to return to MotoGP,.....I would'nt mind betting they get involved in the new Moto1 class when the 125's are phased out at the end of next season.

Wtf are they going to race in Moto1? Kawi 4stroke two fiddies? I have to admit, after the first rosy blush has worn off, that Aprilia would be foolish to split the resources and try to power up a MotoGP team. The coupling with Alitalia has been beneficial for both. Aprilia would need a shitload of capital donated to fund a GP team. I think they could do it... it all comes down to $$$. As far as Biaggi vs Rossi goes... You may be right. WSBK might be the only venue that it could happen. Does Rossi get a wildcard ride from a satellite Ducati team? Seeing as how they had to dump the Factory team in order to pay Rossi's ******* salary. Or do we give them both Aprilias and let them do battle? Rossi has had some fair success with Aprilia in his youth. Maybe he'd like to try an Aprilia again...
