The Ducati will return to racing in the MXGP World Championship at Cózar (Spain), on September 28 and 29 with the Desmo450 MX. After its world championship debut in August at Arnhem (Netherlands) with Antonio Cairoli, the Borgo Panigale manufacturer will now take part in the last GP of the 2024 season, the MXGP of Castilla La Mancha, as a further step in preparation for participation in the 2025 World Championship. This time it will be Alessandro Lupino, current leader of the Italian Prestige MX1 Championship standings, who will take to the MXGP track with the Desmo450 MX for the Ducati Factory MX Team.
Ducati’s 2024 racing program will then conclude on 12 and 13 October on the “Il Ciclamino” circuit in Pietramurata (Arco di Trento) with the final round of the Italian Prestige MX1 Championship, which sees Alessandro Lupino leader of the standings, with a 338-point advantage over his closest pursuer and 500 points still to be assigned.
