After the sensational hat-trick of the Turkish BMW rider on the Adriatic Riviera, Ducati finds itself in the position of hunter rather than the hunted. The Borgo Panigale manufacturer has decided to react with strength and determination by introducing several technical innovations for the next round at Donington.
La Panigale V4 will thus benefit from a new exhaust, lowered compared to the current version. This modification aims not only to reduce the weight of the bike, but also to improve torque and explosiveness in mixed sections of the circuit. This change is crucial to closing the gap with BMW, especially on a circuit as demanding as Donington.
Un Fuel tank revised will also be introduced, as well as a saddle lowered. These changes are expected to provide better ergonomics and weight distribution, thereby improving the motorcycle's handling and rider comfort.
Ducati does not rest on its laurels
Ducati don't stop there. A new swingarm, aimed at working on rigidity and reducing demands on the rear, is currently under development. However, this improvement will only be visible from the Portimao event at the beginning of August according to GPone. The aim is to provide better traction and greater stability, crucial factors in the fight for the title.
The efforts made by Ducati demonstrate their commitment to regaining the lead in the championship. “ We are doing everything in our power to help our drivers in the title race “, said a Ducati spokesperson. “ Every detail counts, and we are determined to overcome the challenges posed by Toprak and BMW. »
With these new improvements, Ducati not only hopes to improve its performance Donington, but also send a strong message to its competitors. The title race is far from over, and Borgo Panigale is ready to fight until the end to regain its place at the top. The Donington round promises to be exciting, with a Panigale V4 more competitive than ever, ready to challenge the couple BMW-Toprak Razgatlioglu and all the other contenders for the title.
