Will a second cut in revs for Ducati finally curtail Alvaro Bautista's WorldSBK dominance?
The Italian marque's all-conquering V4 R Panigale will now only be able to rev to 15600rpm, instead of 15850rpm as previously.
Ducati began the year at 16100rpm, but eight wins from the opening nine races of the year for Bautista prompted organisers to drop the V4 R by 250rpm from May's Barcelona round. However, this made little difference to Bautista's performances, with the Spaniard going on to score trebles at both Barcelona and Misano, as well as two more wins in the two feature races at Donington Park.
As such, Bautista holds a commanding 93-point lead ahead of nearest rival Toprak Razgatlioglu at the halfway point of the season.
