Sure, Capirossi's results this year have been average and Ducati want young, fast, championship contenders in their team and I believe Loris should move on or retire but Ducati have obviously never heard of a thing called 'common courtesy'
Perhaps Ducati were abrupt in their dealings with Capirossi, but we only know his side of the story. If he was playing hard ball with them, or playing them against kawasaki and Suzuki, then it's possible that Ducati not letting him know before going public with Marco's signing was a case of tit for tat.

I'm not saying this is the case, just we have only heard one side of the story and are convicting Ducati based on that alone - which also seems to be a lack of common courtesy on our part...
