Has taught us this' - One Ducati MotoGP rider's intriguing Hungary aero approach

Fabio Di Giannantonio has outlined a Formula 1‑inspired approach to aero on his Ducati VR46 MotoGP bike during the Hungary weekend, swapping between aero packages to suit circuit characteristics. He began Balaton Park with the 2026‑spec aero but switched to an older package for Saturday’s action, arguing that different grip levels require different configurations. The Italian rider says he uses data to decide when a change is warranted and that the process may be straightforward when the desired outcome is clear. Di Giannantonio qualified fourth at Balaton Park but slipped to 10th after a chaotic sprint, and a FP1 crash plus a finger injury limited his clutch work.
