Philipp Ottl has officially resolved his future in the Supersport World Championship by confirming a contract extension for the 2027 season. The German rider is set to contest his third consecutive campaign with the Feel Racing squad aboard the upgraded Bologna machinery.
Despite a challenging technical landscape shaped by strict balancing regulations over recent years, Ottl's undeniable talent remained evident. His technical feedback and prowess convinced the team management to enlist him as the official development rider for the brand-new Panigale V2 platform.
Discussions regarding the renewal initiated smoothly between management and the Casolari family, with both parties mutually agreeing to continue their partnership without exploring alternative options on the paddock. This solid foundation paves the way for a strong continuation in the upcoming championship.

The 2027 season introduces sweeping technical changes across the grid, featuring reduced horsepower limits, brand-new homologation models from rival manufacturers, and a shift to Michelin as the official single tyre supplier. These sweeping adjustments will test every team's engineering capability from round one.
Armed with extensive development data and proven race-winning experience, Feel Ducati and their star rider aim to re-establish dominance at the sharp end of the fiercely competitive intermediate class.
