MotoGP: VIDEO - Rear wings, Honda also “inspired” by Ducati

Rear wings are the latest aerodynamic fad in the MotoGP, once again launched by Ducati. At Motegi, Suzuki experimented with a similar solution (also with different shapes) at Motegi, while it was Honda’s turn at Phillip Island.

Yesterday Marc Marquez anticipated that he’d try out some new parts for next year. The most visible one was a wing on the tail of his bike, which closely resembles the one seen on the Desmosedici: a pair of spoilers in a very vertical position.

Marc is only using the solution on one of his two bikes, so he can make a comparison.
