Ducati Lenovo Team

Ducati Lenovo Team is Ducati Corse's factory MotoGP team, representing the Borgo Panigale manufacturer at the top level of motorcycle grand prix racing. Based in Italy and racing Ducati Desmosedici machinery, the team is one of MotoGP's central reference points for engineering, rider development, and championship contention. The 2026 lineup pairs Marc Márquez, the reigning MotoGP World Champion, with Francesco "Pecco" Bagnaia, Ducati's two-time MotoGP champion from 2022 and 2023. Team management and technical leadership include key Ducati Corse figures such as Luigi Dall'Igna and Davide Tardozzi, with Lenovo serving as title partner. Ducati entered its centenary year in 2026 with a special Rosso Centenario livery and the stated ambition of adding to a period of sustained success. The factory squad remains closely tied to Ducati's broader MotoGP program, which also includes satellite teams and riders across the grid.

Ducati Lenovo Team opened the 2026 MotoGP season as the reigning benchmark after a 2025 triple crown campaign and Marc Márquez's world title. The factory team began the year with Márquez and Francesco Bagnaia on the Desmosedici GP26, carrying high expectations but also facing pressure from KTM, Aprilia, Honda, Yamaha, and Ducati-linked rivals. Early 2026 results have included podium-level pace for Márquez, sprint competitiveness for Bagnaia, and some uneven race weekends, with the team arriving at Le Mans for the French Grand Prix looking to turn speed into a more complete points haul.
