“Ducati and SanDisk share a passion for bringing together performance and design,” said Alessandro Cicognani, Ducati Corse marketing and licensing manager. “That’s why Ducati was proud to welcome SanDisk as a sponsor of our MotoGP team back in January, and why we’re delighted today that SanDisk has created a product so closely mirroring our commitment to excellence.”
