DUCATI PEOPLE – EXPLORING THE PASSION BEHIND THIS LEGENDARY MARQUE
TEXT : KEVIN ASH

Published in 2001

This is the story of Ducati presented not as a chronological history of the bikes and achievements but through an investigatio of the people behind the company and those with a deep passion for it. Each chapter is dedicated to one person who has either had a hand in shaping Ducati or who has in turn been influenced by the Italian factory. The famous are here – Carl Fogarty, Paul Smart, Fabio Taglioni, Massimo Tamburini, even broadcaster Suzi Perry – but also the people behind the scenes such as a female test rider, a long-time dealer, plus key figures brought in by the Texas Pacific Group to modernise the way some things are done. The result is a unique collection of profiles of the men and women who, acress the years, have made Ducati what it is today and reflect the passion this marque inspires in so many fans around the world. Kevin Ash’s lively text is complemented by stunning photographs – some taken specially for the book, other s from Ducati’s extensive archive. These show the Ducati people at work and play as well as a selection of the amazing machines which have rolled out of the Bolognese factory, including the rare and astonishing 1200cc prototype V-four called Apollo, now restored by Ducati to its original glory.
