THE NEW OFFICAL DUCATI WOMEN'S TEAM FOR 2007
After two successful years on the national and international circuits with riders Paola Cazzola and Chiara Valentini, the Official Ducati Women's Team is preparing to continue its tradition of excellent riding and high technical standards that fans have come to expect. The 2007 Official Women's Team will have two new riders: Letizia Marchetti, one of the few riders who were able to keep up with Paola Cazzola last season, and Nina Prinz, the tough and talented German rider, who was already a national champion at only 17.
Letizia Marchetti - Italian champion in the 2005 600 SuperStock category and 3rd place overall in the 2006 Over 1000 category. This beautiful 28 year old from Civitacastellana (VT) got her University degree in Economics. She is also an aerobics teacher and winner of "the best lap time" last season on the Magione race track.
Nina Prinz began to race when she was only 13. Despite her young age, she immediately demonstrated great skills and since then she has ridden extremely fast on all race tracks and has competed in male dominated races, distinguishing herself for her courage, her perseverance and her strong character. Prinz raced in the German national Supersport Championship from 2002 - 2005, and in 2006 she raced in both the German Superbike Championship and the European Championship.
These two riders will participate in the SuperStock 1000 category as the stars of the 2007 Ducati Women's Team. With their new 1098 S Suberbikes, these women will compete to be the first to cross the finish line and to add new prestigious victories to the Ducati successes of past seasons.
The Ducati Women' s Team would not be complete without Romana Fede. After a great season last year in the Debut category, in 2007 Fede will compete in the SuperStock 600 category on her Ducati 749R. Paola Artioli, a rider discovered during the riding classes organised by Ducati (DRE - Ducati Riding Experience), will take Fede's place in the Debut category.
