The Italian brand Ducati arrived to challenge the Japanese giants, and to write its own history in MotoGP in gold letters.
It began with Loris Capirossi, the first rider to win with a Desmosedici, then with Casey Stoner who, in 2007, won a historic world championship with the powerful V4.
In two decades, Ducati was able to overcome Honda and Yamaha, who until then had dominated the premier class of world speed championships.
Ducati was able to rebuild itself, especially under the impulse of Luigi Dall'Igna, to become a benchmark in MotoGP. The Italian engineer has developed a Desmosedici full of technological innovations and Francesco Bagnaia has achieved a series of successes in the last two years.
The author, Michel Turco, Grand Prix reporter for Moto Revue since 1991, has closely followed Ducati's history in MotoGP.
In Ducati - 20 ans de MotoGP 2003-2022 he faithfully traces the history of Ducati in the world championship, retracing each of the twenty seasons, and offering a word to the many people who have taken part in this extraordinary adventure.
