Rossi & Nicky Hayden had only a few opportunities to try new motor, so the process of development of the Desmosedici was walking perfectly.

Although he was trying to get around the rule that limitation by using power check rider, Franco Battaini & Vittoriano Guareschi team boss, but the results were not optimal. As a result, the Desmosedici GP11 is not competitive when fighting with other factory teams, Honda & Yamaha.

The new rules permit the Ducati, Honda, & Yamaha, using 240 (120 sets) Bridgestone tires with a contracted rider. This is what makes Burgess happy.

"For us to be more competitive, they must do a check with the drivers KMI. They have an obligation to Ducati & Ducati fans themselves, so competitive, & if they were behind, then they must check with the drivers of our contract," said The Australian men.

"And it is not a Valentino, but all the Ducati riders. They must work together & try as soon as feasible so that the motor can create. When you are under, you need to immediately improve the speed to be above.

"That is the only way they can move forward. Other companies will have the same rules, & in the event you do not need a check, you do not must do it. They desired to be closer to that in the future. They have a check rider, but with respect , they only been able to take the bicycle, but they would like input from the rider in MotoGP.

Burgess admitted that Ducati development quickly so that it can be a champion in 2007. But after that, from 2008 to 2010, its development in to a slow compared to other plants, Yamaha, Honda before rising in 2011.
