The British champion, Lewis Hamilton, made an excursus on the world of two wheels, commenting enthusiastically on Ducati’s move
We understand each other among champions. Among champions who have decided to get involved by joining a prestigious team from which they intend to start winning again. How it was done, with ridiculous ease, once upon a time. As it is known, Lewis Hamilton he decided to treat himself to nothing less than the Ferrari for a career finale that, whatever happens, promises to be electrifying.
In the world of two wheels, however, the man who won the drivers’ title 8 times demanded the best bike. Obtaining it also, or rather above all, thanks to a surprising season, his first on an unofficial Ducati, which certified his triumphant return to competitiveness. Marc Marquez, who shares with Sir Lewis the choice to join a team where he will obviously be asked to win, has joined the Factory Team of the Borgo Panigale manufacturer since 2025.
If anyone thinks that the British and the Spanish might fear the internal competition represented by Charles Leclerc and Pecco Bagnaia respectively, perhaps they still don’t know what the two are made of. The latest announcement, the one which certified Cabroncito’s arrival in Team Lenovo, was not surprisingly greeted with enthusiasm by the 7-time world champion on four wheels.
