All of today’s rumors regarding Livio Suppo have been confirmed.
The Italian manager will be in Honda HRC next season as their Marketing Director for HRC’s MotoGP activities.
Livio Suppo:“It’s been a very good relationship for me; eleven years working with Ducati has been a dream, and I think together we have achieved something good.
I think sometimes in life you need new motivation.
I must thank Ducati of course for all the opportunities they gave me, and also HRC for being interested in me.
It’s a new challenge, it won’t be easy but we will do our best.
Eleven years at Ducati has been magic.
Of course the 2007 World Championship was the highest hope at the beginning.
Since then it has also been good to work together with Filippo (Preziosi, Ducati Corse General Manager) and Claudio (Domenicali, General Director of Ducati) and all the team, and I’ll leave a piece of my heart in this company.
But again, I think Honda is something difficult to resist.
Next year I will be a kind of Marketing Director for the MotoGP activities and I hope to start on the right foot.
