The first one-two that reflects the dominance of Ducati
Champions in MotoGP and Superbike with Bagnaia and Bautista
The goal is to win the MotoGP and Superbike titles", says Claudio Domenicali, the CEO of Ducati, like a mantra. However, season after season that was not fulfilled. Until in 2022 Pecco Bagnaia and Álvaro Bautista have turned the factory Borgo Panigale in the great dominator of world motorcycling.Because in Superbike, the Bolognese are the kings, since with the one from Talavera they already have 18 crowns. However, in the previous one in the prototype contest, in 2007 with Casey Stoner, in the street derivatives, James Toseland won with a Honda.
In fact, the house with the golden wing can boast of this pair of titles in the same year. And on no less than three occasions: in 1989, with those of Eddie Lawson in the 500cc and Fred Merkel in Superbike; in 1997, with those of Mick Doohan in the premier class and John Kocinski in the street motorcycle championship and in 2002, with Valentino Rossi already in MotoGP and with Colin Edwards in the World Championship that does not admit prototypes. Vale even participated in one of the two doubles that Yamaha has, the one they achieved in 2009, with the last title for the Italian in the maximum displacement and with that of Ben Spies in Superbikes -although that course the World Championship of brands was for Ducati in this last contest-. And that of 2021, with the victories of Fabio Quartararo in MotoGP and Toprak Razgatlioglu in Superbike.
