Ducati took five awards at the annual ‘Motorrad des Jahres’ (Motorcycle of the Year) event in Stuttgart, Germany on Monday evening, when highly respected magazine, Motorrad, presented their annual awards at Stuttgart’s Residenztheater. Decided by the magazine’s voting readers, the awards underline the increasing strength of the famous Italian brand in the German market.
