Milwaukee Ducati Partners with Michael Dunlop

Milwaukee Tool are delighted to have Michael Dunlop spearhead their brand for the 2025 road racing season. This follows a successful outing at the Daytona 200 in early March, where Dunlop finished in ninth place. 

The extremely talented race winner Dunlop will contest the North West 200 and the Isle of Man TT in the Supersport races onboard the Milwaukee Ducati V2.

It is the perfect time to be racing the Ducati with the new next generation rules in Supersport, giving plenty of opportunity for new manufactures to get involved in the series and be at the sharp end winning races.

Dunlop is one of the most famous names in Road Racing history having won 29 TTs in his career, with his first TT and Supersport win back in 2009. And Dunlop will be gunning to add to his tally of six consecutive Supersport wins this season on the V2.

Heading up the team will be Leigh Finlay, who is a very knowledgeable and trained technician / crew chief with two years of experience with the V2 under his belt, including a North West 200 win and two debut TT podiums. With all the components put together Milwaukee Ducati will be working hard to secure Ducati’s first TT win since 1995, which was claimed 30 years ago with the late Rob Holden.

“I’m delighted to be involved with Milwaukee again. It’s been a long time but something I am very excited about and looking forward to a strong season onboard the Milwaukee Ducati V2. They have given me a great opportunity to have a strong season and it’s a new challenge I’m eagerly awaiting.

To be involved with the Feel Racing team (the factory World Supersport team) is a fantastic opportunity, having their backing, knowledge and support for the season ahead. They have two World Championships under their belt and provide a world of information to ensure we progress and get the results we deserve.”

Dale McElveen, Milwaukee Tool UK and Ireland Managing Director
"Having been heavily involved with the road races for many years, this is a new challenge that everyone is looking forward to. Milwaukee will also continue to sponsor the Superbike race at the North West 200 and Senior TT.

I wish to send my heartfelt condolences to the friends and family of Owen Jenner and Shane Richardson after the tragic accident at Oulton Park on Monday. We are all thinking of them"
