Essentially this is ready to go. The expansion reached 5x within the timeframe and brought the article well above Stub-class (I have regraded @ C). Sources look good and have been appropriately used; ref formatting is fine; the article reads well and there are no copyvio/close paraphrasing concerns (I reworded one small sentence). Either hook would be suitable; ALT1 gives slightly more context for interest. The two issues are:
- Current ref [3] from www.cagiva.it is not working (the page comes up but has no content). This ref was on there prior to the expansion, so has probably been in place for ages and has suffered linkrot. Pls see if you can find an alternative ref or an archived version.
- To use the ALT1 hook with the picture, the picture needs to be in the article. There is currently another Ducati 916 pic in the article which could be used instead, or you could swap the one shown here for the one in the article. Both pics look decent quality.
