Ducati tease “risk” in GP25 development at Sepang test
Gigi Dall'Igna discusses the new Desmosedici

Gigi Dall’Igna remained tight-lipped on the technical changes for the Ducati GP25.
However, he did reveal some of theღ new parts that will debut during the upcoming pre-season tests in Malaysia and Thailand.
There will be three factory-sℱpec Desmosedicis in MotoGP this year, a reductꦇion of one.
Ducati Lenovo 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 will benefit from riding th💛e best machinery in MotoGP, as well as VR46’s Fabio di Giannantonio.
“The objective we have for this year is not to have a completely new bike, it's to better the bike we had,”😼 Dall’Igna said.
“Last year's bike gave us so many gratifications and great results. So 💮we have worked on some new solutions and new de🔜velopments on that bike.
“Talking about the tests that will start in two weeks, we have so much new material to try: We have a new swingarm, new chassis. We have a new fairing, completely new one, and we also have other 🌳elements that have☂ been adapted and retouched.
“So we will have to try all these parts. But we will also be very strict in the selection of the parts that really work, the ones that make a clea๊r difference.
“And maybe we will leave the other elements, that we have s🧸ome doubts on, to the side. And then maybe try them aga𝓰in during the season.
“There are so many things to evaluaᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚte, to assess, also on the basis of our competitors and what they will do.
“I like to take [te💙chnical] risks. I always took risks in my life, but you have to be smart in taking risks. You have to risk whe🅷n it's a good moment to do so...”
The Sepang tests start with the Shakedown from Jan 31-Feb 2, when only test rider Michele Pirro and rookie Fermin Aldeguer will be eligible to represen♉t Ducati on track.
The rest of Ducati’s MotoGP line-up, including third factory-sp﷽ec rider Fabio di Giannantonio (VR46), will then join the action at the Official test from February 5-7.
With MotoGP manufacturers facing the additional burden of developing new 850cc machines for 2027, engine design for Ducati, KTM and Aprilia will be frozen from the Thai🐎 season-opener until the end of 2026.
One in-season aero body update wi🍌ll continue to be allowed, with no restrictions on c🐎hassis development.
Yamaha and🎐 Honda are currently exempt from the engine design freeze due to their bottom-of-the-table D concessions ranking.
