I see no reason why Bayliss shouldn't be able to ride it at least as
well as Sete Gibernau. And probably quite a bit faster than Canepa or
Guarescchi.
I'm still puzzled by how testing works with the spec tyres. You can buy
Bridgestone track day slicks, but can Ducati (and all the rest) buy
Bridgestone MotoGP slicks so their testing riders can ride all day every
day?

I don't think there's any chance at all of Bayliss racing. Word is his
wife has vetoed it.

I agree.
But, pace mark's comments about the Ducati being a career breaker
(unless you're Stoner) - Ducati must be quite keen to work out why no
one else can ride their 800. Bayliss is fast enough to approach GP
pace, and demonstrated in his one-off ride that he could certainly
ride the 990 fast enough.
