Randy de Puniet’s weekend at Le Mans wasn’t what he expected, first he got love tapped in the shoulder by Casey Stoner and hauled in front of the Race Direction to get a talking to for obstructing the Australian rider and then a few hours later crashed out before the end of lap one.
The only consolation prize was that the French rider finally took delivery of his Ducati Diavel.
Apparently de Puniet was blown away by the looks and performance of Ducati’s new cruiser (for want of a better term to describe it) that he had to have one.
Here’s Thierry Mouterde of Ducati West Europe and Pascal Verrières of Pramac, giving him the keys to the bike.
It looks like Lauren Vickers won’t be riding pillion with her boyfriend as it doesn’t have a passenger seat, but since the girl is expert rider (she owns an R6 and does track time) she’ll probably steal the keys.
