Casey Stoner on the track to test the Ducati Panigale V4

Ducati - Casey Stoner he returned to the track, but this time not as a MotoGP tester. He did it to prove it Ducati Panigale V4. The Australian driver toured the Valencia circuit in great secrecy to test different solutions mounted on the Red. Obviously no details were provided, but the most astute were able to grasp the advantages given by the new electronic system which allows you to fully manage the power of the V4, but also to have more effective braking. In short, to enjoy the Panigale in every way.

The sporting soul of the motorbike, in fact, must deal with the regulations to be respected in order to be a road vehicle in all respects and this was precisely the skill of the Ducati engineers (assisted by those of the Racing Department): knowing how to combine these two aspects and giving life to a vehicle capable of entertaining even a "handy" like the former world champion who on the Spanish track was able to show off his skills with a less powerful engine than the previous V4 but with more thrust in the medium range regimes. The Panigale also appeared very quick through the corners and relatively simple to ride, also thanks to a completely new chassis.

Not much comes out of Bologna, except that two versions of the V2018 will be released in 4, the "base" Panigale V4 and the Panigale V4 S. Further news is expected for the month of November.
