Francesco Bagnaia fractured his ankle at Le Mans last time out but, according to Ducati, he has benefitted from the long break between races and will be 100% at Mugello.
His teammate Enea Bastianini is set to race in a grand prix for the first time as a factory Ducati rider. He crashed and injured himself on the first Saturday of 2023 and hasn't raced since.
