I don't know whether you have seen this article Gordon, it is from 2011 (before some Nimrod manages to point it out!), but summarizes the problems with the Ducati, essentially weight distribution with the L-4 engine, packaging and tyres.

Seems to need somebody that can rag it around like Stoner and now Dovi, the smooth style of Rossi and Lorenzo just seem unsuited to overcoming the tyre heating and front end problems.
