VR46 unveil 2026 design for Di Giannantonio and Morbidelli's Ducati MotoGP bikes

VR46 are the first of the Ducati teams to reveal their 2026 challenger, before the factory and Gresini team launch presentations on the 19th and 31st of January respectively.

Last year, the Rossi-owned VR46 outfit clinched third in the team standings, securing multiple podiums throughout the season but also suffering some more difficult race weekends.

The team continue into 2026 with their rider lineup of Fabio Di Giannantonio and Franco Morbidelli after the Italian duo finished sixth and seventh in the standings last year.

Both will be looking to prove themselves this season amid stiff competition for their Ducati seats from several other riders on the grid.

The two VR46 riders will be on slightly different bikes this season, with Di Gianntonio riding the new Desmosedici GP26, while Morbidelli will be on the GP25 version.

Known for their iconic fluorescent yellow designs which honour "The Doctor" Valentino Rossi, this year the team have gone with a similarly striking livery, one which is sure to stand out on the grid.
