for using
illegal fueli
Yes, the

of lead in the

negligible,
and the
penalty seems
harsh.

aftended the showinS
of the
new autumn/winter
street-wear collection
from
C'N'C
on February

Place
at the
I'Arco

Pace in Milan.
Together with
many
VlPs,
iournalists
and
his
beautiful
wife, lngrid,
the Ducati
MotocP team
rider
was one of
the first to be able
to
admire
Ennio Capasa's
new desiSns,
which included
pieces
;nspired by the Borgo
Panigale-based
production house-
These will be available
at
most shops that stock
C'N'C
clothinS.
The success
of the spring/summer
2006 line,
produced under
rhe label
"C'N'C
Ducati,"
therefore seems
set to continue,
stren8theninE
the collaboration
between
Costume
National
and
Ducati and
the racing world.
C'N'C
will be
the official sponsor
of the
Ducati l'lotocP
Team
for 2006
with its logo clearly
visible
on the
clothing
of the
riders and team
members.
