Ducati’s technical director has provided some clues about their 2025 MotoGP bike.

The GP25 🅺is expected to be the best on the grid this year, followin🍒g the manufacturer’s dominance for the past three seasons.

Ducati factory duo 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia are expected to do battle for the MotoGP championship with the 😼GP🧜25.

VR46’s Fabio di Giannantonio is the third 𝕴rider with access to the bike.

“We will have a lot of new things,” Dav💜ide Barana🐻 told  before the shakedown in Sepang.

“If they are be﷽tter, you꧑ still have to try it. We tried some in Barcelona, but it was only a day there, it was just a first contact.

“We will have an improvement in the engine, which is actual🃏ly a hybrid, because the☂y already tested it in Barcelona and the two riders already gave us some comments about driving.

“Therefore, we [took] a🌠 revised version to Sepanไg compared to Montmelo.

“Then, we also took a new 🎉aerodynamic set, which is not the one in the presentation, because we always use the old aerodynamics there.

“Then, an evolved chassis, an evolved swingarm and also an evolution i🦄n the system to lower th🐻e bike.”

Ducati’s testing of their factory-spec bike at the three-day shakedown was carried out by Michele Pirro, their long-time test𓄧 ri😼der.

Pirro rode multiple versions of the Desmosedici including one which appeared to have a modified 🌄fairing.

Barana continued: “There are many things. Honestly, I don't know if we will haveღ time to try everything.

“But, as Gigi says, we are already starting from an optimal base, we do not have the urgency to put everytღhing in at the moment.

“We have a 🐷first step, with the most important things. Surely, th🔯e engine, because then it has to be 'frozen'.

“Then aerodynamics, b🔜ecause we have to homologate a configuration at the beginning of the season🐼.

“Of the r👍est, if the comments are positive, we will see whether to put them at the moment or, instead, wait to do it during the season, to Jerez or races afterwards.”

The official three-day preseason MotoGP Sepang test is Wednesday February 5 until Friday F🃏ebruary 7.

Factory riders will𓆏 be permitted to take part, for the first tim♚e in 2025.

It means Marquez and🍬 Bagnaia will get their first chance to try the developed GP25 since the postseason Barcelona test.
