Did they specify which flavor of 1098 they were riding? It was the 'S' model, right... with the Marchesini wheels?

Mostly the Standard version. From the article, "We also had a chance to test an S version, which had 10 additional horsepower. The stock Ohlins suspension swallowed everything. We ran even quicker laps on this model, as we played with the motorcycle's lap timer device, a device that allowed us to download information to our PC and analyze later."
