Effenbert, Pirelli and Tudor partner Ducati for massive WDW2012

As Ducati make the final preparations for a potentially record-breaking World Ducati Week 2012, the famous Italian motorcycle manufacturer reveals the brands that will proudly partner their highly anticipated event at the Misano Adriatico circuit 21-24 June.

The WDW2012 event Main Partners will be Effenbert, Pirelli and Tudor, three top-class, exciting and dynamic brands whose partnerships will play an important role in the event organisation and, with a supporting list of Official Partners, enable an entertaining line-up of initiatives for what could be a record number of “Ducatisti”.

Effenbert, producer of the famous beer (also available in an alcohol-free version) is now also a key player in the World Superbike Championship series and as title sponsor of Team Effenbert Liberty Racing, has recognised WDW to be one of the biggest communication and entertainment events for motorcycle fans.

The brand has chosen to partner Ducati’s seventh edition of the WDW event to confirm its interest in the world of motorcycling and support the passionate community of Ducatisti and fans of their racing team. Team Effenbert Liberty Racing will attend the Misano event with its official World Superbike riders of Ducati 1198-powered Jakub Smrz, Sylvain Guintoli, Maxime Berger and Brett McCormick. While Effenbert will also be present in the “Galaxy of Adrenalin”, one of the WDW2012 themed paddock areas with freestyle performances by the “Team DaBoot”, the rest of the red-hot paddock will be constantly cooled with alcohol-free version of Effenbert beer.

Requiring little in the way of introduction, Pirelli, the world-famous tyre manufacturer has constantly worked with Ducati in recent years to develop innovative and world-beating technical advancements in motorcycling, and will attend the massive event with special WDW-customised products. Purchasing tyres in the Misano paddock will offer a truly unique experience and WDW-goers wishing to take advantage of special terms offered by Pirelli should mail wdw@pirelli.com for more information.

Ducati’s official Timing Partner, Tudor, the prestigious brand of watches, complete an impressive line-up of Main Partners and further underline their focus on the world of sports. The famous Swiss manufacturer, who offer an exclusive collection of Ducati timepieces called Fastrider, will preview its latest technology, the new and stylish GranTour watch. Tudor, who also assume the title of “Event Timing Partner”, will sponsor a number of activities in the “Heritage Galaxy” area, including the celebration of the 40th anniversary of Paul Smart’s historic win in the 1972 Imola 200, the Ducati Vintage contest and an Elegance contest for vintage motorcycles. Style, precision and technology are key words for both brands and Tudor will further enhance its association with Ducati by offering the opportunity to learn more about the mechanical engineering applied to watch-making.

As advance ticket sales suggest record attendance, WDW2012 is ramping-up ready for four days of motorcycle fun and entertainment on “The Planet of the Champions”, an event also made possible by WDW2012’s Official Partners.

The Province of Rimini, Municipality of Misano, Municipality of Cattolica, Municipality of Riccione, and the Republic of San Marino, in addition to the special relationship and sponsorship of the Spanish Tourist Board, will enable the thousands of fans arriving in Misano from all over the world, to help promote its own regions and the “Ducati-friendly” opportunities that it can offer.

Ducati also celebrate the services of Leardini Group, which provide the high quality catering service in Adriatic Riviera style, and the Adria Congrex for its organisational support. The stunning Misano World Circuit, now hosting its seventh World Ducati Week, provides the dream venue for this uniquely thrilling event and the platform on which all these passionate partnerships have been built.
