Ducati's World Superbike team will see a new manager for 2010.
Word out of Italy is the
Ducati Corse racing department is in total chaos today. As announced earlier this week,
MotoGP team manager
Livio Suppo was let go, being replaced by current GP test rider Vittoriano Guareschi. Suppo is said to be going to HRC (
Honda’s racing division) for next season.
Adding fuel to the fire is that all the department contracts are up today and the big news is that World Superbike team manager Davide Tardozzi will be out of work at Ducati as well. No word yet as to whether this comes down from
Ducati or was Tardozzi's choice.
Talk about a big shakeup. The former
World Superbike racer has been with the Italian brand for well over a decade and led them to countless wins and more championships than any other brand in the paddock. Word is his replacement will be announced shortly.
Stay tuned as we will bring you more info as it comes available…
