Filippo Preziosi became the sacrificial lamb following Valentino Rossi’s disastrous two-year stint in Ducati and the engineer behind the Ducati Desmosedici, was removed from his position of General Manager of the Corse department last November and replaced by Bernhard Gobmeier, a choice made by Audi who bought the Italian manufacturer.

Preziosi was to hold the position of Director of Research & Development for Ducati Motor Holding, but Ducati has announced that Preziosi has decided to leave the company for health reasons.
