All the "premium" positions have been closed in MotoGP. The same with the supporting actors, of riders riding for the satellite teams. The only empty saddles left are those of the Honda Gresini, who has not yet decided between the Spies, Alvaro Bautista, Scott Redding and maybe Jonathan Rea.

And Hector Barbera; Where is the future of the Spaniard who for the second time in 2 chronically injured in the spine, however, avoiding the worst… He is unlucky; Maybe very lucky; Or it is a warning of fate;

Anyway, beyond the health problem, ο Hector πρέπει πλέον να ψάξει και για δουλειά. Η Ducati, είτε μέσω της Pramac είτε όχι, σκοπεύει του χρόνου να κατεβάσει τη λεγόμενη Ομάδα Junior, δηλαδή νέους αναβάτες σε εργοστασιακές μοτοσυκλέτες, in order to build its future and move faster in the evolution of Desmosedici.

Many have been convinced of the correctness of the "Youth Team" plan announced by Alessandro Cicognani a month ago, with the optimistic prediction that "it will be ready by the end of August". Ducati designs, even if they are slow to materialize, they mean no saddle for Hector on the Ducati.

That's bad, but worse that the Spaniard does not seem to be included in the plans of any of the team-managers of the existing teams.

The unfortunate Barbera - who before breaking his leg in training, he had started from the front row for the first time in his career at Mugello- missed Laguna Seca, then tried to drive with a broken leg at Indianapolis.

All he managed was to fall on a nasty highside and crack 3 vertebrae in Elefthera of Paraskevi. Now looking for a saddle, ο σε «αναρρωτική» αναβάτης της Pramac Ducati έχει αρχίσει να χτυπάει τις πόρτες των ομάδων CRT, προκειμένου να συνεχίσει να οδηγεί μαζί με τους «μεγάλους».

Rumor has it he has already held talks with Team BQR who are running two FTR-Kawasakis and their riders Yonny Hernandez / Ivan Silva. He has also spoken to Forward Racing and Marc VDS (which is likely to rise the 2013 in MotoGP), but also with his former boss Jorge Aspar Martinez.

The Spanish manager admitted that he has spoken to Barbera's agent, but not with the rider himself. However, he seems to prefer his former rider's return to GP250 and GP125 (where they took a title together), Alvaro Bautista.

Their relationships 3 parts are a bit complicated: when 'Aspar' moved up to MotoGP the 2010, had tried to woo Bautista - but he didn't want to ride a Ducati and preferred Paul Denning's team representing Suzuki. And so Martinez was "forced" to take Barbera. Which, if it does not find a CRT group, he should probably drop down to Moto2 –in the footsteps of many other 250ers such as Toni Elias, Mika Kallio, Alex de Angelis, Anthony West, Roberto Rolfo και Yuki Takahashi.

Or try his luck in the world Superbike...
