With its fourth consecutive MotoGP rider title and fifth overall in the brand’s history, Ducati is underlining its sporting dominance in 2025. Marc Márquez’s latest title win is the occasion for a particularly exclusive collector’s model: the Panigale V4 Márquez 2025 World Champion Replica. The motorcycle was unveiled during a grand celebration at Ducati’s headquarters in Borgo Panigale.
Celebrations in Borgo Panigale
To celebrate the 2025 season, Ducati gathered its factory riders from MotoGP, Superbike, and Motocross for an internal event for employees and factory staff. In addition to Marc Márquez, Francesco Bagnaia, Álex Márquez, Fermín Aldeguer, Fabio Di Giannantonio, Superbike rider Nicolò Bulega, and Motocross greats such as Tony Cairoli were among those in attendance.
The highlight of the day was a parade of official racing motorcycles around the factory grounds. Several Desmosedici GP MotoGP machines, accompanied by Superbike and Motocross racing machines, took a lap of honor around the factory. The event was intended to highlight the connection between development, production, and racing.
Limited special edition with collector’s appeal
The Panigale V4 Márquez 2025 World Champion Replica is limited to exactly 293 units. Each motorcycle is numbered and bears Marc Márquez’s original signature on the tank cover. In addition, a certificate of authenticity, a special motorcycle cover, and a personalized wooden transport crate are included in the scope of delivery.
Visually, the special edition is strongly based on the MotoGP factory machine of the 2025 season. The paintwork incorporates design elements from the Desmosedici GP and combines them with numerous carbon components.
Technology close to MotoGP racing
The special edition is based on the Panigale V4 S with the 1,103 cm³ Desmosedici Stradale engine. In combination with a homologated Akrapovič exhaust system and special engine tuning, the power unit delivers 218.5 hp (160.8 kW) at 13,500 rpm. The maximum torque is 122.1 Nm at 11,250 rpm. Compared to the standard version, the power output is slightly higher, while the weight is lower.
The dry weight without fuel is 186.5 kg (411.3 lbs). The Akrapovič silencer alone reduces the weight by 2.5 kg (5.5 lbs). Further savings are achieved by the five-spoke carbon rims, which are around 0.95 kg (2.1 lbs) lighter than the forged wheels of the Panigale V4 S. This is expected to reduce inertia by 12 percent at the front and 19 percent at the rear.
Corner sidepods are being used for the first time in a production motorcycle of this type. These aerodynamic elements were originally developed for MotoGP and are designed to generate additional downforce at high lean angles, which should improve grip when exiting corners.
High-quality braking system and chassis
A key feature of the World Champion Replica is the Front Brake Pro+ system. It consists of two 338.5 mm diameter and 6.2 mm thick Brembo T Drive discs and GP4 Sport Production monoblock calipers. The system is complemented by a Brembo MCS 19.21 radial pump with remote-adjustable lever. The system is homologated for road use and is based on components from Superbike racing.
For the chassis, Ducati relies on the well-known Öhlins electronic package. An NPX 30 gas-charged fork and a TTX 36 shock absorber are installed, each with Smart EC 3.0 control. An electronic steering damper completes the system.
Features and exclusive details
Standard equipment includes a dry clutch, an Alcantara seat, a racing windshield, and a special start animation on the display. CNC-milled aluminum footrests are also installed, as is a GPS module for data collection.
Additional, non-homologated components are included for pure racetrack use. These include an open carbon clutch cover, an aluminum racing fuel cap, air deflectors for the brake calipers, and a kit for removing the license plate holder.
Another collector’s detail is the upper triple clamp, milled from solid aluminum, with the model name and serial number. This number can also be found on the aluminum ignition key.
Price and exclusive riding experience
The price of the Ducati Panigale V4 Márquez 2025 World Champion Replica is around €92,800 (approximately $93,000). This puts the model on a par with previous Ducati collector’s items.
In addition to the motorcycle, buyers will have the opportunity to meet Marc Márquez in person. A joint photo is planned either at a race during the 2026 MotoGP season or during World Ducati Week 2026 in early July.
