Ducati North America’s Post

MotoGP™ star Johann Zarco shares his insights into Ducati Motor Holding’s success and the close competition in the world of premier class racing. Zarco highlights Ducati's impressive capability: “What Ducati has been incredible at is to make a bike that all riders can win on,” he elaborates on their remarkable approach to creating a competitive machine. The key, according to Zarco, is Ducati's focus on the rider: “They give the opportunity to each rider to win races and to fight for podiums, by finding for everyone a good feeling on the bike.” This philosophy underscores Ducati's commitment to rider-centric development. Zarco admires this strategy, saying, “This is where they have been fantastic.” It's not just about the bike's power or technology but how it connects with each rider. But Zarco also sees potential in the competition: “But when you analyse everything, the [performance] difference is not so big and that's what gives a lot of hopes for the others.” He suggests that small changes could elevate other teams to Ducati’s level. His optimism for the sport concludes with, “Because it will be one change, or a few changes, that will bring the other bikes also on the top.” Zarco's perspective brings an exciting angle to the ongoing developments in MotoGP, as teams and riders gear up for another thrilling season! #JohannZarco #MotoGP #Ducati #RacingPassion #MotorcycleRacing #TeamSpirit #OnTheRise #JZ05 #LCRHonda #469Motorsports

It was a great pleasure to open another Ducati racing season in Madonna di Campiglio, a location that perfectly expresses the values of 'Made in Italy' of which we are proud ambassadors. The path that has led us to be the best in the world in racing is undoubtedly made up of the hard daily work of these years, but also of our ability to work as a team and have fun while putting our maximum effort into what we do. One of the strong elements of our brand is the ability to create a system and we demonstrate this by jointly presenting the official teams for the 2024 racing season, the Ducati Lenovo Team, the Aruba.it – Racing Ducati Team, and unveiling of the new Desmo450 MX, the motorcycle that opens a new historical chapter for us in the motocross world. Seeing all the bikes together was a great emotion for me because, although different from each other, they are part of a single project. This belonging is underlined by the basic colour of the liveries, Ducati Red, the same for all, and also by a completely new graphic sign that recalls the curve present in the Ducati logo, inspired by the most exciting part of riding a motorbike: the bend. At the same time, these bikes are also an expression of the path that Ducati has taken in recent years, investing in its future. The entry into motocross is in fact the demonstration of the company's solidity and determination to continue investing in expanding the range offered to our enthusiasts. In these two days we had the opportunity to give ourselves the right energy for a year that promises to be full of challenges. After two extraordinary seasons like those of 2022 and 2023, confirming ourselves will be a hard job because the competitors are extremely determined, but certainly everything is ready to face a new season with the utmost determination! #DucatiCorse #MotoGP #WSBK #Motocross #CampioniinPista Ducati Motor Holding Aruba S.p.A.

🌟 Introducing the Ferrari ‘125 S’ 🌟 The 1947 May 11th 125 S was Ferrari's first sports car and the first to use Colombo's revolutionary engine. Purpose-built for sports car racing, it won the company's debut race at the 1947 Grand Prix of Rome, driven by Franco Cortese. Of the ten races entered, the car won six, finished second in one, and retired in three. Cortese stated that when compared to his competitors, the 125 S "was a more modern machine, indeed exceptional for those days." During its anniversary celebrations, Ferrari frequently refers to the 125 S as the beginning of its history, citing 1947 as the year it was founded. The 125 S was designed alongside the 125 F1 and debuted during the 1948 Grand Prix season. The engine of the open-wheel racer was similar to the one in the 125 S, with the exception of a single-stage supercharger, which was required by regulations. It debuted at the 1948 Italian Grand Prix, when its impressive performance persuaded Enzo to continue the company's expensive Grand Prix racing program. #Automotive#SolidBrain#Ferrari

Aprilia brings F1-inspired blown diffuser to MotoGP in Sepang test https://lnkd.in/dVCvfp_J Aerodynamic devices have been gaining prominence in MotoGP for several years now, but manufacturers have taken things up a notch in 2024, as evidenced by pictures coming out of the Sepang International Circuit this week. While all five manufacturers have put extra focus on aero over the winter, Aprilia in particular has introduced some radical solutions in its bid to close the gap to Ducati and KTM this year. Marco de Luca, Head of Vehicle at Aprilia Racing, has plenty of F1 experience under his belt thanks to a stint as an aerodynamicist at Ferrari during its wildly successful era with Michael Schumacher. One of the ideas that de Luca had patented in June has now made its way to the Aprilia RS-GP, and marks the first use of such a concept in MotoGP. Blown diffuser was a technology that was pioneered by Red Bull during the early 2010s and it involved directing hot exhaust gases over the diffuser to generate more downforce. Aprilia has come up with its own version of the concept, which was spotted during the first pre-season test of the year in Malaysia this week, and is part of a larger overhaul of the rear end of the RS-GP. Initially, the attention fell on the upper part of the tail which has only two lateral profiles and a small cantilevered flap, in addition to a single wing - a departure from the triplane layout that many others have adopted. But of more interest is the lower part of the bike, which Aprilia has cleverly designed to build a channel that acts as an extractor profile (...).
