Presentation under the sign of “Made in Italy”
The ceremonial presentation took place in the Salone degli Arazzi at Palazzo Piacentini in Rome, a symbolic location for Italian industrial and economic expertise. Ducati CEO Claudio Domenicali presented the motorcycle in the presence of Adolfo Urso, the Italian Minister for Enterprise and Made in Italy, and the Minister for Sport and Youth, Andrea Abodi.
“The Panigale V4 Tricolore Italia is the essence of Made in Italy. Its design, its technology and its exclusivity represent the passion that characterizes Ducati,” explained Domenicali. The number of units produced was chosen deliberately: 1 stands for Bagnaia’s victory in Mugello, 63 is his starting number in the MotoGP.
Limited edition – already sold out
The Panigale V4 Tricolore Italia is not only a technological masterpiece, but also a coveted collector’s item. All 163 units were already sold out before the official presentation. Buyers also have the opportunity to purchase a tailor-made leather racing suit with the matching Tricolore Italia design.
