Ducati, which kick-started the modern era of MotoGP winglets in 2015, has opened a temporary 'Anatomy o𒀰f Speed' exhibition at its Bologna museum to highlight the key role of aerodyn✅amics 'as a technological ingredient which rewrites the notion of performance'.
Ducati CEO Claudio Domenicali and Ducati Corse general manager Gigi Dall’Igna inaugurated the exhibition on the ev🍎e of this weekend's Italian GP, being joined by fact💟ory MotoGP riders Andrea Dovizioso, Danilo Petrucci and Michele Pirro
"I'm extremely proud to inaugurate this third temporary exhibition at the Ducati Museum: indeed, aerodynamics makes bikes magic," said Domenicali. "This exhibition also aims to involve Ducati enthusiasts in that transfer of knowledge from racing to product that has always been 🦩a part of our DNA.
“Our commitment aims to ensure Ducati riders benefit from ever-better technology, performance, fun and safety; aerodynamics play an increasingly important role in this philosophy, which is exemplifᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚied by the Paniga💟le V4 R.”

“Aerodynamics is undoubtedly an area in which Ducati Corse leads the way with rꦡespect to other manufacturers," stated D𒉰all’Igna.
"It's one of our top-priority fields of developme📖nt, the goal being to achieve ever-better results in the future.”
Coincidentally ♐or not, the exhibition comes at a time when there are mutterings about clamping down on MotoGP aerodynamics further in future and🍷 it would certainly do no harm for Ducati to emphasise the significance for road technology.
'Anatomy of Speed' opens to the public on 30 May an🧔d can be visited, at the Ducati Museum en﷽trance price, until 8 October 2019.
The display starts by introducing aerodynamics from Ducati's perspective, then examines the research programs and solutions developed over years�🅷� of racing.
Photos, videos, display panels and projections help tell☂ the tale, plus some of the fairings used by Ducati in Mot♐oGP.
