During Thursday’s pre-event press conference at Brno Valentino Rossi said: “Sunday after the race you know what I will do in 2011″ and reveal the second worst kept secret of the paddock (Stoner to Honda was the first) with his official switch to Ducati.
In an interview with Paolo Beltramo of Sportmediaset that was aired before today’s qualifying session, the pitlane commentator tried to draw out the Italian in admitting officially his switch, but Rossi didn’t fall for the ploy but he did admit that: “making this year’s decision was much easier than leaving Honda at the end of 2003.
”Rossi also revealed that he will not personally be making the announcement, but everything will be done with press releases, so stay tuned between 5 and 6 o’clock Sunday evening.
