Britain's Chaz Davies has unwrapped the factory-backed GoEleven Ducati Panigale V4R he will campaign in this year's championship.
Having taken their first victory in 2020 and thus becoming Independent Champions courtesy of Italian youngster Michael Rinaldi, who has been swapped for Davies in the factory team, the aims as the Welshman looks to continue his momentum from the final three rounds of 2020 as the highest point-scorer across those final nine races.
For the 2021 season, I just want to enjoy it to be honest,” said Davies. “Hopefully, we can have a normal season without too much interruption like in 2020. I want to get 100 per cent out of myself and this for me, in the past, has always been the approach, instead of setting a big target or speaking too much beforehand.
"I’m confident that if I’m happy and that if I can have the correct support from Ducati, then we can achieve the same results that we achieved in the past: fighting for the podium and winning many races.
“I’ve been recovering from Covid-19, but I’m all better now and I’ve been training again, ready for the start of the season in two months and even ready for our next test in two weeks.
“It’s been a long time since I was on the Ducati Panigale V4R, as it was Estoril last year at the end of last season but of course, I had great memories. I always look forward to the feeling of getting back on the bike, especially the first laps where they are nice and calm, and you can enjoy it a little bit. I am always keeping myself busy as in my free time, I ride other types of motorcycles.”
