The MotoGP Ducati Riding Experience

When it comes to motorcycle experience, V1 MOTO's President and General Manager Carlos Lescale, has a ton. And now we can say that he has genuine MotoGP experience.

This is the first time Ducati have ever offered a Ducati Riding Experience with their MotoGP bikes, and Carlos was chosen from a select few people worldwide to participate. It is definitely the stuff that dreams are made of, and he is still pinching himself to see if it was all a dream. But, alas - we've got the pictures to prove it really happened!

Please stay tuned next week for the release of the video Ducati put together just for Carlos! In the meantime, here are some stills from it that we couldn't wait to share with you.

It's not everyday that you get to take command of a MotoGP crew at the legendary Mugello circuit. But there he is, sitting in Michele Pirro's chair receiving some instruction from the his crew chief.


How many times have you seen a rider get pushed out of the pits before launching an assault on the track? This time the rider has V1 MOTO on his leathers.


The video's drone footage perfectly captures moments like this — trail-breaking into one of Mugello's famous apex's. We don't want to spoil the video too much, but it didn't seem like Carlos was shy with the throttle.


Not only did he not crash, but head of DRE, Dario Marchetti, came out just to give our dude a hi-five. He must have seen the data from the monitor and was like "daaaaaaaang!"


We've got an interview planned with Carlos so he can tell us about his MotoGP DRE experience. There are many things we hope to find out — like if Michele Pirro was friendly, or was just thankful to have his bike back.

Stay tuned next week for the spectacular action-packed video that Ducati made of Carlos' MotoGP experience!

In the meantime, schedule a Ducati test ride from our experienced team at V1 MOTO.
