As soon as Audi acquired the Italian motorcycle maker, Ducati, they’re off having heaps of fun with the newly launched Ducati Panigale. In this case, it’s AWD versus 1WD, and having the Panigale in there, we just couldn’t help but take a peek, just to see how it all turned out.
Instead of the usual ‘wind in your hair’, high-speed knee-puck scraping track fun, it had to be another one of those car versus bike clips.
So what’s going up against the Italian Panigale crotch-rocket? Well, Audi initially thought about making use of their R8 with its Lamborghini derived V10, but decided to use their TT RS Plus instead because Audi acknowledges that its simply quicker around most race tracks.
And so here it is, the All-Wheel-Drive Audi TT RS Plus’ 360bhp against the Ducati 1199 Panigale’s 195bhp. Let the marketing gimmick begin.
