Ducati entered motocross with big ambitions, advanced engineering, and a factory-backed Supercross team.

Justin Barcia's devastating Anaheim 1 crash, Dylan Ferrandis' first season, Jeremy Seewer's departure, and the arrival of RJ Hampshire have all raised questions about Ducati's future in Supercross and motocross. We break down Ducati's early successes, expensive gamble, racing struggles, and the progress that could make its next season even more interesting.
