Not a big deal but the land their track was on was sold a while back.  With all the development going on in this area, they’d have to go even further away from the race shop to purchase and build a facility.

One thing to point out with the early Ken Roczen rumors is how the energy drink deal would be handled? Ducati is partnered with Monster, Lenovo, Flexbox, and a few other key brands across all their factory racing entries. From what I've heard that would be extended into their US team as well. Roczen has been with Red Bull since he was...what...12?

But ML AC222 has been with redbull since 2006 so going into his 18th year or would have been, 

an equal on time but more productive results wise relationship than Roczen 

There must me some big numbers being offered!

There's a bit of a difference between their deals and how marketable Kenny is/how long he's been on a personal deal with Red Bull and not just team deals. Can it happen? Of course, anything can. I just think it's less likely in this situation.

Yes true, I opened my mouth before thinking there! 
 

kens popularity is at possibly a all time high and 222 curtain is well on its way down! 

I accept my blind thought process!

A key comment in this thread from @ML512

Phoenix has a competitive GNCC operation and staff for that side of racing, which I've heard is of major interest to Ducati as well. I believe Ducati has interest in Ziggy (Factory Connection) as well, who is now partnered up in a sense with Phoenix.

GNCC + Ziggy  for the win...

If I was a betting man I'd say this is a big reason why Ziggy got back into the game now with Phoenix. Gives them 2 years to build the team under racing conditions with Dylan, and court possible sponsors so they are prepared for running the Ducati program in '26.

According to DC, they have expressed interest in GNCC as recently as the bike launch a couple weeks ago. The crowds at GNCCs are larger than Nationals...

Also, one of the teams they have contacted was informed they're interested in GNCC.

GNCC is no where near enduro spec...you dont need an XC specific model to go race.
