While the 2019-spec Panigale V4 R made continued improvements which culminated in Ba༒utista winning t꧑he 2022 WorldSBK title, the brand new V4 R is expected to be an even better machine.

Bautista was seꦍnsational throughout the 2022 campaign which was of no great surprise giv꧙en the form he showed aboard the Panigale as a rookie in 2019.

And while his championship win was very much deserved after being the best rider for large parts of the season, Ducati have chosen not 🎉to rest on their laurels.

A new V4 R will be debuted on January 25 when testing begins at Jerez, with Bautista, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Michael Ruben Rinaldi, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Axel Bassani, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Danilo Petrucci and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Phillip Oettl all expe🦹cted to be aboard their new Ducati machines. 

"We will start the winter tests with🐭 the new bike so I’m looking forward to having a good feeling with the bike again," Bautista told wuqian0821.com. "It's been two months since the last race and since I rode this bike. For sure, we have to see how the new Panigale♉ is. 

🌜"There is not a big change on the bike and every time there is a new bike you have to check that everything is correct and working well. 

"We don’t have many tests before the first round so we have to use the maximum time at the track and try to get🐎 the maximum performance for the first race in Australia."

Bautista rode the♛ last Panigale when it was both new and coming towards the end of its life cycle, but although a new bike should offer more potential, the Spaniard is unsurꦰe how much better it will be, if at all.  

Bautista added: "It’s clear that from 2019 the bike improved a lot. No🍰 big change but especially in the weak points they improved and made the bike better. 

"But there are some areas like turning - turning without gas and without brakes - that can be a bit be🔜tter. Also, exiting from the corner - exit stability and especially t💧he feeling with the front we need to improve. 

"I don’t kno🐓w if the new Panigale will improve or not. We have to check and see. But we’re very clear on the areas we need to improve. 

"Ducati knoꦉws very well that in those areas we lose compared to other manufacturers. For sure, we have other areas where we have better points than them, but those areas were our target to improve. Turn a bit better naturally and 𓆏exit from the corners."
