Lecuona staying, I think that's the right call. The factory firmly locked in the momentum from his first SBK win at Donington. Trust between rider and team ties directly to whether you can believe in the bike at corner entry. Locking that foundation in with a 2-year deal should pay off in how they race next season.

Is Aruba.it Ducati's factory team?

Right, Aruba.it is Ducati's official WorldSBK factory team.

A multi-year deal after just one win feels a little premature, honestly.

His potential was already proven back in his Moto2 days.

2027-28—that's a contract looking pretty far down the road.

Feels like he's becoming the top candidate to succeed Bautista.

First win at Donington leading to a 2-year extension — seems like a fair call.
