After the launch of 1098, Ducati started working on its successor [[Ducati 1199|Ducati 1199 Panigale]]. The project was code-named 0801. The company started an internal contest for the job of designing the new Ducati [[sport bike]]. Three Ducati designers were chosen to compete, and two of the designs were developed into full-size mock-ups. Fabbro’s design won the contest.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/News/newsresults/New-bikes/2011/November/nov2511-ducati-1199-panigale-where-it-all-began/|title=Ducati 1199 Panigale S (2012-2014) Motorcycle Review}}</ref>
In an interview, Fabbro admits that he made the first drawings of what would become Ducati 1199 at the end of 2006, without knowing about the new project. “The first design was for fun! I knew there was no new bike happening but my dream was to make something very modern, compact and technical in design. The first sketch took me one afternoon. It was a pencil drawing so it was easy to erase it as I went along."<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/News/newsresults/New-bikes/2011/November/nov2511-ducati-1199-panigale-where-it-all-began/|title=Ducati 1199 Panigale S (2012-2014) Motorcycle Review}}</ref> He was awarded the 2014 [[Compasso d'Oro]] for the design.<ref>{{Cite web |title=1199 PANIGALE |url=https://www.adidesignmuseum.org/en/schede/1199-panigale/ |access-date=2024-06-26 |website=ADI Design Museum |language=en-US}}</ref>
