Audi and Ducati's first joint outing was at Pikes Peak

Audi RS 5 and Ducati Multistrada tackle Pikes Peak on video.

Over the years, both Audi and Ducati have made lasting impressions in the annual Pikes Peak Hill Climb; and this year the two companies are racing up the famous hill side-by-side to mark the event's 90th anniversary.

The two hill-climbers put forward for the show are Audi's latest RS 5 and the Ducati Multistrada 1200 S.  There has been no word with regards to power or handling modifications to these models for the event; however both vehicles in standard guise are more than capable of tackling the formidable roadway.  Fans in the US are also able to enter the 'ultimate ride and drive contest' - a competition to experience these models first-hand.

Audi is also making a donation to the Battle of the Blaze fund - an organisation set up to support those who were affected by the recent fires that took place around the Pikes Peak area.
