Yoong Montoya should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Ducati's MotoGP starts?

How the hell do they get such good starts? 9th to 1st for Bayliss in South Africa His start was just like Michael Schumacher's in the F1 French Grand Prix in 1994.

So how do they do it? 'option 13' maybe?

It's usually just the gaggle going into the first corner and the two Ducati riders just make the best starts.

But is it that Bayliss and Capirossi are both good at starts or it something on the Ducati itself?

I think the Ducati may have the most powerful motors in MotoGP. They are usually really fast over the first half of the races then fall back possibly because of tire degradation. IMO, if they get the chassis together they will be able to win races and force Honda to raise their game.

Maybe they are running traction control and launch control like TGF in 94

MotoGP bikes already run a form of traction control. Or so I've heard during various broadcasts.
