Ducati recalled swingarms from some of its customer WorldSBK teams at Assen over what were described as critical issues. The recall affected satellite Panigale V4 R squads during the Dutch Round weekend. The factory Aruba.it machines of Nicolo Bulega and Iker Lecuona were unaffected, with Bulega going on to win Race 1. The issue added significant behind the scenes drama to an already chaotic weekend.
