The Ducati Desmo450 MX ridden by Alessandro Lupino finishes third twice in the second round of the Italian Motocross Championship. The prototype, already victorious in its debut last March in Mantua, represents the first step of a project that will see the birth of a complete range of off-road motorbikes, developed on the most demanding racing fields.
In the second round of the Italian MX1 Championship, held on the Tittoni Circuit in Cingoli, the eight-time Italian Champion, after setting the fourth time in qualifying, was the author of a difficult race in both heats due to a physical problem. In race 1 Alessandro was the author of a good comeback after being delayed at the start. The driver from Viterbo gradually moved up and managed to obtain third position.

In the second heat, Alessandro managed the race also based on the pain, managing to overtake some riders ahead of him and once again confirming third place.
The Cingoli race allowed Ducati engineers to collect other precious data to support the development of the Desmo450 MX, whose race performance is confirming the validity of the technical basis of the prototype.
The next race of the Italian Motocross Championship is scheduled for 25 and 26 May on the Montevarchi (AR) track. During the month's break, Alessandro Lupino and Tony Cairoli, present at Cingoli to support his brand partner, will continue the testing program of the Desmo450 MX.
