MCN has learned that legendary Ducati World Superbike team boss Davide Tardozzi has resigned.

Tardozzi has played an influential role in the team’s success having masterminded multiple world championship success with Carl Fogarty, Troy Bayliss, Neil Hodgson and James Toseland.

It remains unclear what the 50 year old former WSB race winner will do now, but he has already been linked with the Ducati MotoGP team manager job following the news that current team manager Livio Suppo will leave the team.

MCN have tried to contact Tardozzi for a comment, but his phone is currently switched off.
