Our vehicles, lined up in the paddock at every race, are evidence of how the Iveco brand is now even more present in MotoGP and is always looking for new initiatives to inform customers of the values of loyalty, determination and team spirit, which governed the sport in general, but also those in which the company believes, applying them in its daily activities.”
