With the Motocross of Nations, which concluded the 2025 racing season on the Ironman track in Crawfordsville, Indiana (USA) on October 4–5, the collaboration between Ducati and the Maddii Racing Team has also come to an end.
Ducati and Maddii Racing Team debuted together in 2024 with the launch of the new Desmo450 MX in the Italian MX Prestige Championship, won by Alessandro Lupino, and made their MXGP World Championship debut in Arnhem with Antonio Cairoli.
In 2025, continuing the partnership with Corrado and Marco Maddii’s team structure, Ducati competed in the entire MXGP World Championship with riders Jeremy Seewer and Mattia Guadagnini, achieving two podium finishes (third place in Switzerland and France with Seewer) and four holeshots (three by Jeremy and one by Mattia) throughout the season.
The campaign concluded with Ducati’s first-ever participation in the Motocross of Nations, where Antonio Cairoli and Jeremy Seewer represented Italy and Switzerland, respectively.
Ducati wishes to express its sincere thanks to Corrado and Marco Maddii for their support and dedication throughout these two years of collaboration and extends its best wishes for the future success of their team.
