World Ducati Week 2018 celebrity Ducati auctioned
WDW Celebrity Ducatis auctioned
Bayliss-Panigale V4 for 120,000 euros
At the World Ducati Week 2018, the Italians let their racing professionals compete against each other in a show race on special Panigale V4s. The bikes were then auctioned off. Only one came at an exorbitant price. One is already for sale again.

As part of the World Ducati Week 2018 from July 20 to 22, 2018 at the Marco Simoncelli Misano World Circuit, the Italians had twelve professional racing drivers from MotoGP and various Superbike series on Ducati machines compete against each other in a Race of Champions.
Auction on Ebay

In the Race of Champions, test driver Michele Pirro was in the lead in the end.
At the start were Andrea Dovizioso, Jorge Lorenzo, Michele Pirro, Chaz Davies, Marco Melandri, Troy Bayliss, Danilo Petrucci, Jack Miller, Tito Rabat, Karel Abraham, Xavi Fores and Michael Ruben Rinaldi. It was driven on 12 structurally identical Ducati Panigale V4s, each with the look of the racing machine of the respective driver. All attachments required for road use (mirrors, indicators, headlights, …) have been removed.

All 12 racing bikes were auctioned on Ebay.
In addition, each bike has the name of the pilot engraved in the upper triple clamp, a higher fairing disc, an Akrapovic racing silencer, a racing tank cap, a racing footrest system, a racing hump, new steering stub, a racing brake cover at the front and a carbon cover for the rear wheel swing arm. As a further feature there is an overpainted original signature of the driver on the tank.
If you were a real Ducati fan and wanted to put such a bike in the garage, you had the chance to bid on Ebay, because all twelve motorcycles were offered there from July 21 (6:00 p.m.). The auctions ran until July 27th (6:00 p.m.).
And it was obvious that there were many fans who were willing to donate. The highest price of all 13 machines on offer was achieved after 129 bids for the Panigale V4 S with starting number 2 + 1, which was piloted by superbike legend Troy Bayliss. A full 120,350 euros were on the bid list in the end. The Dovizioso bike with starting number 4 came in at just 62,400 euros and Jorge Lorenzo’s Panigale V4 S still fetched 57,800 euros. In total, all 13 motorcycles achieved auction proceeds of 675,855.99 euros.

The proceeds from the auctions went to Ducati. Incidentally, the celebrity race was won by Ducati factory test driver Michele Pirro.
WDW-Ducs already in resale
The buyers of the Panigale models from prominent previous owners are probably not really fanatical after all. The first of the auctioned machines is already up for sale one day after the end of the auction. In a German Classified ads portal Andrea Dovizioso is offering the machine with the starting number 4 at a price of 69,999 euros. The buyer had paid 62,400 euros.
