The departure currently means that the role of Ducati Motor Holding Director of R&D remains vacant.
‘Declaring reasons of poor health related to his particular physical condition, Preziosi’s resignation was accepted by Ducati, saddened and disappointed to lose such an accomplished and strategic member of staff,’ a statement reads.
‘The company respectfully acknowledges the 45-year old Italian’s decision and thanks him for his significant contribution during his 19 years with Ducati, 12 of which were within Ducati Corse.’
An announcement regarding Preziosi’s successor will be published in due course.
