Ducati has taken the covers off its 2014 Desmosedici GP14 MotoGP contender at a presentation in Munich.

After the Ducati Team press conference at the Audi Forum, the new Desmosedici GP14’s livery was unveiled to international media and Audi Group management in an evening event, the day before the Audi Annual Press Conference at Ingolstadt.

The sporting activities and product innovations of the Audi Group were presented in a spectacular environment at the Audi Zentrum in Eching.

The sporting activities for the new season and the technical details of the new Desmosedici GP14 were illustrated, in the light of the recent tests and the decision to take part in the championship in Open configuration.

“As I have said recently, in MotoGP we also want to find again those values that have led us to obtain successful results in the past,” said Claudio Domenicali.

“We are ready for the new MotoGP season, firmly convinced that the enthusiasm, the passion and the technical competence of our team, together with the support of our sponsors and partners and all of our ‘tifosi’, will enable us to tackle this commitment with determination.

“Cal and Andrea are very talented riders, and Luigi Dall’Igna will surely be able to manage the resources available in the best possible way.”

Two Desmosedici GP14 machines, in an exciting new matte colour scheme, entered the stage ridden by Andrea Dovizioso and Cal Crutchlow, in front of over 300 international media, invited to Munich and then to Ingolstadt by Audi for the Annual Press Conference.
