Ducati GP15 Winglets for Race Day

Ducati GP15 Winglets Silverstone 2015

On Sunday morning here at Silverstone, Andrea Dovizioso’s Ducati GP15 Winglets status is as follows. His #1 bike wears large, slotted winglets shown above. This appears to my naked eye to be aboard the old, wider fairing.

This vented wing is much larger than the usual versions found on the older and newer fairings.

From the rear you can see the vent designed into the winglet.

Dovi’s #2 bike looks to have the new narrow fairing with its wide winglet, the one that curves around toward the front.

When photographed, both bikes had yesterday’s dry set up, and given that Moto2 is currently out on a wet track with rain tires, only time will tell which winglet Dovi uses come race time.

Incidentally, both of Andrea Iannone’s bikes had the older style winglet.
