P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Alvaro Bautista and rookie WorldSBK team-mate Nicolo Bulega have taken the covers off their 2024 Ducati machine.
The two-time WorldSBK champion, Alvaro Bautista, was joined by Bulega and MotoGP stars Francesco Bagnaia and Enea Bastianini at the Ducati launch in Italy. Bautista is aiming for his third consecutive title in 2024, which would make him the first Ducati rider to achieve this feat. Bulega has moved up to WorldSBK after two successful seasons with Ducati in WorldSSP. Bautista expects his main challengers to remain the same, but on different bikes. Toprak Razgatlioglu, previously a championship threat, is now on a BMW, while six-time world champion Jonathan Rea has joined Yamaha. Bautista is embracing the changes and is motivated to perform even better than last season with the support of his young and talented teammate Nicolo.
