DesmoSport Ducati is pleased to officially welcome Ducati as a team partner for the 2020 Australian Superbike Championship (ASBK) season. With the introduction in 2020 of the fully owned corporate subsidiary of Ducati, the partnership reinforces the brand's commitment to the racetrack, as we defend our Championship on board the Ducati Panigale V4 R.

Managing Director, Ducati Australia, Sergi Canovas: “Ducati have had a long and successful relationship with Troy. We are thrilled to continue this relationship in Australia as we support the DesmoSport Ducati Team to defend the Championship. As we prepare to enter the Australian market with the fully owned corporate subsidiary, we are proud to partner with those that share our passion of the brand and the racetrack. We wish Mike Jones and the Team the best of fortunes when racing resumes.”

Team Co-Owner, and three time world superbike champion, Troy Bayliss: "My
relationship with Ducati is strong. The brand along with the family in Borgo Panigale, have supported me throughout my career and I am excited to once again partner with them for the season ahead. I am excited to go racing together and see a new chapter as a Team Owner along with Ben (Henry)."

Team Co-Owner, Ben Henry: "We've had a close relationship with Ducati since the team first went racing in 2016, and I'm happy to see that partnership reinforced with Ducati's arrival in Australia. I want to thank Warren Fraser, and Warren Lee for their support as we established the race team, and I'm really looking forward to working with Ducati as we move through this next phase, and go racing again soon."
