Between an "Amarcord" Atmosphere and 100 Years to Celebrate: Marc and Pecco both on track at the Italian GP

Adrenaline, passion, and the embrace of all Ducatisti for the Italian GP, which was held for the first time at Mugello 50 years ago (1976). A special weekend with the confirmation that Marc Márquez will be on track alongside Francesco Bagnaia riding the Desmosedici GP. A weekend with an amarcord feel and many events for celebrating the 100th anniversary of Ducati. Among these, there will be also the presentation of the special livery—at the circuit on Thursday late afternoon—with which Marc and Pecco will race in the Sunday's GP.

The Tuscan track is one where the "Red" from Borgo Panigale has triumphed a total of eight times, including the last 4 editions. In 2009, Stoner was the first, followed by Dovizioso in 2017, Lorenzo in 2018, and Petrucci in 2019. From '22 to '24 three triumphs for Pecco, and Marc closes the roll of honor with his success in 2025.

Marc will return to racing after the double surgery—on his right shoulder and right foot—which he underwent in Madrid following the crash at the French GP. Still in the phase of full recovery, Marc will be on track to test his actual physical condition and for the usual "fit to race" medical check on Thursday.

Positive feelings for Pecco as well, after his first podium of the season in Barcelona. The special atmosphere and the affection of all his fans will provide further motivation to confirm his place among the fastest riders.

Francesco Bagnaia #63 Ducati Lenovo Team
"The Italian GP at Mugello is always a special moment of the season. There isn't much to say about the track, it's one of the most beautiful on the calendar, one of those where going fast truly gives you that little something extra. Then there's the support and affection of the fans, an incredible energy. I'm ready and we keep working hard with the whole Team. I can't wait to get on track: the podium in Barcelona, post-race, was a peculiar feeling, but it was needed for all the crew, especially after a day like the last Sunday with so many incidents".

Marc Márquez #93 Ducati Lenovo Team
"The recovery is progressing as planned, I've gone back to training normally over the last few days and I will be on track mainly to test my actual feelings and physical condition aboard the Desmosedici GP. Both surgeries went well, but we are proceeding with all due caution and with the final medical checks at the track. Mugello is an incredible track, to be honest also a very demanding one, but the support of all the Ducatisti will be an extra motivational booster to do well".
