Andrea Iannone (Ducati Team) ended a 7 year drought for the team without a win as he crossed the line in Austria to beat his teammate to the feat. The Italian also thinks Brno could be a good track for the Desmosedici, and looks forward to building on a good result last year as the bike proves itself a real podium challenger.

After a P2 finish to complete the first Ducati Team 1-2 since 2007, Andrea Dovizioso looks forward to taking the team’s renewed confidence into the next race at the HJC Helmets Grand Prix České Republiky. The Italian veteran will be making his 250th GP start in a row at the Czech GP, and knows the venue could prove more difficult than Austria, but the Desmosedici continues improving.

Andrea Dovizioso: “After our 1-2 in Austria, Ducati must now take a lot of confidence into the next few races even though we must never stop working to improve the little details, because our rivals are very strong and the Yamahas at Zeltweg were able to finish the race close to us. In Brno it will be more difficult but in the last few races we have improved everything in the bike so I am sure that we can also be competitive in the Czech Republic.”
