Mauro Grassilli was announced on Thursday as the new Sports, Marketing, and Communications Director of Ducati Corse. He now combines the responsibilities he previously held with those of Paolo Ciabatti, who will be the General Manager of the new Ducati Corse Off-Road division.
As it has been thus far, Ducati Corse will continue managing successful programs in MotoGP and the World Superbike Championship. Grassilli will report directly to the General Manager of Ducati Corse, Gigi Dall’Igna. Ciabatti, on the other hand, will continue as the coordinator of sporting activities in national Superbike and Supersport championships.
This restructuring follows the creation of the Ducati Corse Off-Road division, which will oversee the manufacturer’s motocross project starting in 2024.
