Ducati Corse, Prima Pramac’s Dante-Inspired Livery (2023)

“Ducati’s satellite MotoGP team Pramac will run a special livery in the Italian Grand Prix at Mugello, with the colour scheme paying tribute to Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy.

“The team’s riders Johann Zarco and Jorge Martin will both run a two-sided paint scheme, with one side referencing Inferno – the first part of the Divine Comedy – and the second themed after Paradiso – the third and final part.

“Inscribed on the Inferno part is the famous ‘abandon all hope ye who enter here,’ while the other side features another line from Dante’s poem, translating to ‘the love that moves the sun and the other stars.’”   —Valentin Khorounzhiy, Simon Patterson, “Pramac to Race Split The Divine Comedy Livery at Mugello,” The Race (June 8, 2023)
