News & press
Dear Friends/Drivers,
Ducati is working for the 2011 edition Trophy, a very important issue that will see big news for the five races that will make up the schedule and as regards the starting grids. The release of the new EVO 848 has given us the opportunity to offer, for 2011, the long-awaited grid entirely devoted to the standard 848 and EVO. Ducati believes so much in this new category, so as to pay homage to riders who buy the new model EVO with the kit Racing Termignoni full exhaust required . The 1198S, 1198 are based in the all-new 1198 SP STK configuration, will compete in the historical category with SBK podium standings and dedications, with a prize pool that has no changed from last year. Termignoni exhaust kit required will be discounted by 30% as usual. The category Protwins continue its adventure while still providing space enthusiasts and preparatory Desmodue, plus the novelty of the constructors' championship dedicated to them. But that’s not all - for the first time in six editions of the DDC, it lands on the Monza circuit. We are offering an exclusive proposal which the Desmo Challenge is ONLY able to offer to our friends and to the public. During the weekend the Ducati 2011 is available for testing outside of the circuit.
