DUCATI MARLBORO TEAM – PRESS INFORMATION

50 LUCKY DUCATI EMPLOYEES CHOSEN FOR TEAM MOTOGP LAUNCH

Borgo Panigale (Bologna) 11 February 2003 – The international launch of the Ducati Marlboro Team is scheduled for this coming Friday, 14th February. The venue for the event – reserved exclusively for accredited media, VIPs and institutional figures – will be the FilaForum, Assago, in Milan (Italy). The event marks an important moment for the Bologna-based motorcycle manufacturer, which makes its return to Grand Prix racing after an absence of thirty years, while continuing its commitment in the World Superbike Championship, a key cornerstone of Ducati strategy.

As is Ducati’s style and tradition, the entire company will participate in this historic moment, sharing the passion and the excitement of the unveiling of the Ducati Desmosedici in its definitive colours, together with Troy Bayliss and Loris Capirossi, the two riders chosen to spearhead Ducati’s line-up in the MotoGP championship.

50 employees, made up of 30 from the Borgo Panigale factory plus 20 representing the six Ducati worldwide subsidiaries, have been given an opportunity to experience the event in person. The lucky ‘winners’ were chosen in a draw on Monday 10th February. A Ducati coach will take the group directly to Milan on Friday 14th February. On arrival at the FilaForum, the 50 reserved places will allow the Ducati employees to enjoy every single moment of the presentation, followed by lunch together with journalists, VIPs and riders, before returning to the factory in the afternoon.
