Marco Rigamonti’s poise and elegance make him measured when asked to compare Marc Marquez, who handed him his first MotoGP title as a crew chief last Sunday, with the other riders he has worked with. Ducati entrusted Rigamonti with the greatest challenge of his career, and the Italian has responded brilliantly. “The first thing I thought when they offered me the…

Electric mobility isn’t just a buzzword anymore.
