What looks like a fuel tank on a factory Ducati Desmosedici GP23 is actually a cover for most of the electronics, which receive all important cooling air from the ducts. The fuel tank starts at the filler cap and extends down and back under the rider’s seat. Photo courtesy Ducati.

A “press release” is promotional text issued by a rider, team, company or organization to inform
the public about an event, product, or service from the issuer’s own point of view, and if deemed
to have news value, may be placed on roadracingworld.com as a service to our readers.
A press release is not an article written by Roadracingworld.com staffers. When a post is labeled with the words “press release”, it means that Roadracingworld.com is not responsible for its content and that Roadracingworld.com makes no guarantee that it is accurate. Not all press releases are posted and Roadracingworld.com may reject press releases if the content is too heavy on commercial promotion with little or no news value or if the press release contains obvious errors.
