MotoGP – Gigi Dall’Igna proposes cornering ABS and active suspensions

MotoGP – Gigi Dall’Igna proposes cornering ABS and active suspensions
Bruno Gomes
November 2, 2018

Ducati Corse general manager Gigi Dall’Igna, in an interview given to Italian newspaper Corriere Dello Sport, talked about the introduction of new technologies into MotoGP prototypes. The Ducati manager speaks about the technical rules of MotoGP, that don’t allow the use of technologies that are now being used on motorcycles produced for the road.

Dall’Igna thinks it would be a huge step into making the MotoGP bikes even safer and more efficient if the Grand Prix organizers allowed for teams to use systems like cornering ABS and also active suspensions.

For Ducati, and especially for the man responsible for getting World Superbike titles for Aprilia with the RSV4 and that since joining Ducati Factory team in MotoGP has brought Ducati back to the top, not allowing the use of these kinds of technologies is nonsense, because MotoGP should be the pinnacle of motorcycle technology, and also because it would mean that his team of engineers would be able to find other solutions to make the Desmosedici GP bike more efficient during corners.

Gigi Dall’Igna admits Ducati is already working on the 2019 bike, and the Bologna factory is working hard to improve the bike in terms of cornering performance, their main problem this season.

We must not forget that it was Ducati that started working with Öhlins on their carbon fibre racing forks, and also it was Ducati who showed up with the famous aerodynamic wings on their bike. So it would make sense that it’s Ducati who’s trying to push Dorna and FIM to introduce the possibility of MotoGP teams to use systems like cornering ABS and active suspensions.

With more than ten years as a motorcycle journalist, i enjoy everything that has to do with two-wheels. I'm a fan of sport bikes and i prefer riding them on a racetrack, but give me a road filled with corners and good asphalt and i'll be there to have some fun!
