Sprint Race
IN QUALIFYING, ALEX Márquez (Gresini Racing) qualified on pole. He was followed by Marco Bezzecchi (Mooney VR46 Racing) in second place and Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team) in third place. As the lights went out for the start of the sprint race, Franco Morbidelli (Monster Energy Yamaha) got a phenomenal launch to briefly lead into the first corner; however, pole-sitter Alex Márquez grabbed Pr a few corners later as Morbidelli ran wide. Bagnaia lost quite a few positions at the start and was dropped down to P7. Brad Binder (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing) started the race in P15 and sliced through the field to arrive in P4 by the end of the first lap. It surely was a sensational ride from the South African.
Morbidelli was the new leader and led the race until Binder got the better of him on lap three. The top nine included Binder, Morbidelli, Luca Marini (Mooney VR46 Racing), Alex Márquez, Bagnaia, Bezzecchi, Aleix Espargaro, Aprilia Racing teammate Maverick Viñales, and Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing). This group of nine riders was separated by just 1.6 seconds with seven laps to go.

Ducati Revamp Powerful Multistrada 14 S
At face value, it appears Ducati have only mildly tweaked the Multistrada V4 S for 2025, which is why we arrived in Perugia, Italy, a few hours north of Rome, expecting a couple of easy days on the classy adventure-tourer. However, it quickly became apparent that despite only mildly updating the Multi's familiar looks, beneath the bodywork lies a vast number of updates that Ducati hope will make the bestselling Multi (and best-selling Ducati globally) even more versatile than before
