DUCATI DESMO450 MX DEBUT: VIDEO SERIES – PART 1

1 day ago | Words: Matt Holmes | Photos: Ducati Media House

Ducati has just released a behind-the-scenes video series that document’s the brand’s stunning debut into the motocross world as an immediate contender to win the Italian MX Championship.

Ducati’s Desmo450 MX has been rolling with some very serious hype, and thankfully they’re more than living up to it. Their debut in the 2024 Italian Motocross Championship saw Alessandro Lupino claiming both pole position and a victory in the first heat, ultimately finishing second overall on the day.

This entry by Ducati into off-road racing has been beautifully documented in what will be a four-part series following the team. Episode 1 focuses on their first race at Mantova with insights from Lupino, living legend Tony Cairoli, and Ducati’s CEO Claudio Domenicali. The level of professionalism Ducati Corse bring to MX racing is on full show.

Well worth a watch in the lead-up to Ducati taking on the world in MXGP in 2025.
