CONSTRUCTOR'S TITLE
Ducati has won the MotoGP
Constructor's title for the sixth

that surprised absolutely no one,
the brand that has won 14 of the
year's 15 races, as well as every

because it's completely different
to the one from last year," Martin
said. "We improved in all the
areas in a normal situation, on
a track with good grip. But here
