Early Monday morning nine-time World Champion Valentino Rossi posted a photo of the newest Ducati Desmosedici GP12 on his personal Twitter page along with the message, “ladies and gentleman, new bike is ready.” The photo clearly shows the back half of an aluminum twin-spar main frame. Rossi will begin testing the new bike Tuesday, January 31 at Sepang in Malaysia. Rossi’s teammate Nicky Hayden will also test the new bike if his still-healing broken shoulder blade and fractured ribs allow it.
