The much talked about transfer deal that will leave the Ducati with six bikes instead of eight next season, reporting instead from two to four the Yamaha contingent. The Iwata company wins an important battle, after having made a very close court to the Italian team, and for the team directed by Gino Borsoi it will be a new beginning.

Prima-Pramac finally wanted to thank Ducatifrom which he separated after two decades of collaboration: “The decision to separate from Ducati was not taken lightly – we read in the press release – and we thank them for the long and fruitful journey we have undertaken together“.
