On the sidelines of his memories of EICMA and his passion for the Dakar Rally, Dall'Igna takes stock of Ducati's historic dominance, for which he is primarily responsible: six consecutive Manufacturers' titles, but above all, four consecutive Riders' titles with three different riders (Bagnaia, Martín, Márquez).

Márquez's injury complicates the end-of-season testing plan. GP24 and GP25? Equivalent performance, differences in reliability. Targeted developments in 2026; the real turning point will come in 2027 with new tyres, no lowering devices and aerodynamic constraints.

Two-stroke in his heart, but the challenges won with four-stroke remain the greatest.

At 60, the future? ‘We'll think about it.’
