The Barni Spark Racing Team have shared their 2024 WorldSBK li🌳very.
The team's 10th season in the WorldSBK championship will ag🦩ain feature Danilo Petrucci as its rider.
They will also compete with Yarಞi Montella in Supersport series, and Mi🌳chele Pirro in the CIV series.
Petrucci said: "We sought this renewa🍬l because both the team and I believe there are all the prerequisites to surpass last yꦇear's more than satisfactory results.
"If we are still here, it is because we want more. In 2023, it took us𒅌 h🐈alf a season to become competitive; now we start with a different awareness from the first race."
Montella said: "The team presentation is always an exci𝔍ting moment, an opportunity to gather all ൩the people who support us during the season.
"During the winter, I've been training hard, and I've had the chance to ride the Panigale V2 a lot. It's been very important to arrive at Phillip Is🧸land already at my maximum."

Pirro said: "Together with the Barni Spark Racing Team, we have a๊chieved 65 victories and six Ital𒐪ian titles. However, the desire to win remains the same from both myself and Barni.
"I sincerely thank the Barnabò family; sportingly, I 𝓡owe them so much. After ten🥀 years, a friendship has been created that goes beyond racing.
"From the outside, it all looks easy, but nothing we have achieved together is taken for granted. We need maximum commitment, which has never🥀 been lacking, and the support of everyone. Aౠ special thanks to the sponsors who allow us to be on the track."
Edoardo Aquilano said: "It's an honor to be part of the Barni Spark Racing Team and⛄ to stand beside Danilo, Michele, and Yไari.
"For me, they represent valuable examples to follow as role models. I can't wait to get on track and be supported by Marco Barnabò and his st𓂃aff. I am curious and anxious to see the team at work. I will give 100% on and off the track to💛 be competitive."
Marco Barnabò, Team Principal, added: "In 2024 it will be the tenth season in the WorldSBK champio🅷nship and whoever chooses to be by our side also bonds a little with Ducati.
"It would be nice to celebrate with good results, we don't lack anything to do so: we've worked hard all winter𒁃 with our suppliers and I'm sure the riders have done the same. We want to be protagonists in all the championships."
