Ducati is to lose the first of the special concessions granted at the start of the 2014 season.

The two podiums which Ducati scored at Qatar bring its dry podium total to three, which means that the fuel allowance for all Factory Option Ducati bikes will be cut from 24 liters to 22 liters, as we reported on Sunday night.

The allowance of 22 liters is still 2 liters more than the 20 liters used by Yamaha and Honda, who race without any concessions.

They inferred on Sunday that they were not bothered about losing the fuel allowance. Only time will tell i guess.

I think that Dovi said they were at the start of their development program and that there is a lot more to come from the new bike , if that is the case then I believe that will more than compensate for the the loss of fuel and eventually the softer compound tyre they can use
