Marco Melandri's future at the Ducati team is uncertain if he does not manage to raise his game in the next few races, according to team boss Livio Suppo.
The Italian rider has admitted he is ready to step aside if his performance doesn't improve, and Suppo says they will consider his future in the next races.
Melandri has only scored 29 points so far compare to teammate Casey Stoner's 117.
Rumours in the paddock are pointing out that former GP winner Sete Giberneau, who recently tested with the team, could be in line to replace Melandri.
