DUCATI have revealed the new Desmosedici GP12 that Valentino Rossi and Nicky Hayden will campaign in the 2012 MotoGP season.
The new race livery for the Desmosedici was unveiled in a live online presentation, broadcast on team sponsor TIM's Facebook page.
For the 2012 season the paint scheme closely resembles that of the Panigale S Tricolore, with green flashes joining the familiar red and white paint from previous years.
Ducati's technical director, Fillipo Preziosi was tight-lipped about the changes made to the Desmosedici GP but confirmed that the engine's cylinder angle remains at 90° and that it has been built to the maximum 1000cc capacity.
The radiator appears to be built from a single piece, meaning that the engine may have been rotated rearwards, alloing it to be mounted further forward within the chassis and putting a greater load on the front end of the bike.
