Indy Ducati Island and MotoGP 2010

Most people think Indy racing is all about cars going fast but they would be wrong. It started with bikes. When MotoGP returned to the brickyard 3 years ago it was a return to a tradition that went back to 1909 when motorcycles were the first machines to race on the bricks. Now, 102 years later, it's an International scene, dominated by sponsers and riders that call other countries home. But Indy is "home" to Nicky Hayden, the Owensboro Kentucky ex-world champion Ducati racer and so this weekend was very much about him. Join us for the Project Mugello weekend, Ducati Island and "Nicky's GP", 2010........
