Ducati staying in MotoGP

Motorcycling: Italian manufacturer Ducati announced yesterday its continuation in MotoGP until at least the end of the 2026 season.

Ducati won the top category with Australian Casey Stoner in 2007, ending a 32year domination by Japanese manufacturers.

The Bolognabased company also secured the MotoGP constructors’ title last season following a 50point deduction for Yamaha. Suzuki won the rider and team titles with Spaniard Joan Mir.

The Ducati team has a new lineup for 2021, with Australian Jack Miller and Italian Francesco Bagnaia. — Reuters
