Melandri confirms Kawasaki move

Marco Melandri has revealed that he will ride for Kawasaki next season, after his fruitless year with Ducati comes to an end.

"I hope to get good results in the last six races of 2008 and after that I am moving to another team," Melandri told the official Moto GP site. "I will ride for Kawasaki next year so it´s a big change for me."

"For the time being I want to think about this season but it will be a big challenge next year," he added. "I will keep working hard though and I am quite confident."
