Spaniard Toni Elias has signed on to be the second rider on the d’Antin Ducati satellite team for the 2008 MotoGP World Championship, according to reports out of Europe. The 24-year-old will ride Bridgestone-shod Ducati Desmosedici GP08s alongside Sylvain Guintoli, who was previously announced to the team for the 2008 season. Elias won a MotoGP race at Portugal last season, but his 2007 campaign was interrupted by a broken femur, which he suffered in a crash at Assen. Elias returned from the injury quickly but has had troubles regaining his race-winning form, and Gresini Honda, Elias’ current team, chose not to exercise the option it held on his contract.
