Reigning MotoGP champion Ducati reveals 2024 livery
The 2023 MotoGP season was a dominant one for Ducati, as they won a record 17 out of 20 grand prix races, securing the constructors’ title.

The Ducati team lineup for 2024 remains unchanged, with Bagnaia and Enea Bastianini. Despite Bastianini’s injury-ridden season, he managed to win a grand prix in Malaysia. Ducati underwent internal changes, with Paolo Ciabatti moving to the off-road program and Mauro Grassilli taking over as sporting director. Ducati unveiled their 2024 livery, and Marc Marquez joined the team after leaving Honda. Ducati will face new restrictions in 2024, including no wildcard entries, limited test tires and circuits, maximum engine and aerodynamic fairing updates, and concessions for Aprilia and KTM.
