"I'm extremely proud to inaugurate this third temporary exhibition at the Ducati Museum: indeed, aerodynamics makes bikes magi꧃c," said Domenicali. "This exhibition also aims to involve Ducati enthusiasts in that transfer of knowledge from racing to product that has always been a part of our DNA.

“Our commitment aims to ensur☂e Ducati riders benefit from ever-better technology, performance, fun and safety; aerodynamics play an increasingly important role in this philosophy, which is exemplified by the Panigale V4 R.”

“Aerodynamics is undoubtedly an area in📖 which Ducati Corse leads the way with respect to other manufacturers," stated Dall’Igna.

"It's one of our top-priority fields of development, the goal being to achi𒐪eve ever-better results in the future.”

Coincidentally or not, the exhibition comes at a🅘 time when there are mutterings about clamping down on MotoGP aerodynamics further in future and it would certainly do no harm for Ducati to emphasise the significance for road technology.

'Anatomy of Speed' opens to the public on 30 May and can be visited, at the Ducati Museum entranc🥀e pri✨ce, until 8 October 2019.

The display starts by introducing aerodynamics from Ducati's persp♓ective, then examines the research programs and solutions developed over years of racing.

Photos, ౠvideos, display panels and projections help tell the tale, plus some of the fairings used by Ducati in&nbs🐟p;MotoGP.
