Ducati Has Inspiration From Honda and Yamaha in Developing Motorbikes at Moto GP 2020

Ducati's general manager, Luigi Dall'Igna, said that Yamaha and Honda became a source of inspiration for his team in the development of motorcycles.

Ducati is one of the teams that often makes innovations in the development of devices in MotoGP.

One of them happened last season, where Ducati stole the attention by using aerodynamic devices such as swingarms.

However, the use of the new device turned out to have sparked a polemic because it was considered illegal by several other teams.

After the use of these devices, Ducati must get a threat from FIM that will cancel the victory won by Andrea Dovizioso in the inaugural MotoGP race in 2019.

Ducati through its general manager, Luigi Dall'Igna did not dismiss that his team had many other innovations that could help increase the pace of the Desmosedici.

He asserted that breakthroughs and ideas about the innovation of the devices came not from him alone, but from the whole team.

"The idea always comes from everyone on this team, I don't think that all ideas come from just one person," Luigi Dall'Igna said

According to him, the Italian man is something important for his team to always listen to the input and ideas of many people.

"It's important to get people to come up with new ideas, and explain them as well, and that is the way it works at Ducati," he said.

"Sometimes we have long meetings with many people just to develop new ideas or to find new ideas," he said again.

53-year-old man also did not dismiss if in the development process Ducati was inspired by other manufacturers such as Yamaha and Honda.

"We learned a little about other manufacturers, we didn't copy it, but sometimes I get inspiration from them," he added.

"In this case it is rather difficult to say, that the inspiration came from Honda, and also Yamaha," said Luigi Dall'Igna.
