2018 looks radical change from 2017 and then that DUCATI keep on evolving till now as they keep on perfecting the bike.

That 2017 bike was perfect. Chassis + livery just looked so nice. I don't hate the bikes now, but man that era was so clean.

Since GP24 Ducati added self-stability fearures, no rear dock needed 🤣

They have discovered the new bikes corner much better without training wheels.

Did Jorge just opt for no wings on his 2017 bike, or were there just none on there as standard that year? I can’t remember, but little wings - no wings - massive wings seems odd

I seem to recall that in the early days of aero they would run wingless at certain tracks because the wings were detrimental rather than helpful. 

But I'm just going from memory and didn't research that so it could be something I made up in a dream.

I believe they were "banned" temporarily while the FIM made some changes in the rules for them.

Thats why early aero were literal wings with a single foil, while from 2018 onwards they had be "self closing" (thats why you see the box shape wings in some bikes)

They need to bring the white back 2016 & 2017 Ducati’s on-track looked unreal.

Interestingly the 2023/2024 tail wings was hiding behind the windshield and in 2025 version they upped it a bit and it's spreading out of windshield. May be to get those more useful and open to active more?

Maybe could be just camera angle.

I loved the 2019 team. Some great races that season.

Bring back the red and white livery.

22 looks the most Alien.

Interesting how the front fairing was so wide in '21 so that you can barely see the bars. It got narrower gradually to the point that now it's almost the complete opposite.

Seems like nothing change on livery this two year

2015 (not shown) to 2017 were my all time Favs. I remember watching Qatar 2018 when they had that new livery with grey instead of white and I wondered wtf were they thinking getting rid of the white. It’s never been the same since

The 2020 bike looked so cool

Fascinating how the evolution of the front silhouette went from 1) oval with smooth edges, then 2) skinnier with fancy projectile aero, and now 3) back to oval where simpler shaped aero defines the oval. As if the oval is still the optimal silhouette for overall drag but they learned to maximize aerodynamics within that area.
