You may have heard that young Casey Stoner who carries the flag of Godzone on his fairing, is hanging up his bike helmet at the end of this season, possibly to take up V8 Supercar racing. Absolutely off topic for simming, but, jeez, he's an Aussie, and it gives me a chance to mention it. :OT:

Well.. that's good news though not because he's an Aussie of course :lol: Any form of racing gets boring when the same bloke wins race after race and I'm a bit fed up of Mr Stoner having things his own way ;)

Well, if everybody has been getting a tad yawny with Mr Stoner's monotonous wins.........
Stand by for our next secret weapon BLACK CAVIAR won 21 races from 21 starts here in Australia. She's heading overseas to find some competition.
Actually, I don't follow the horses, but the headlines scream it at you from a distance.
B-) I have to enjoy the reflected glory while I can, B-) I beleive the Olympics is nigh, and for most of you, close at hand too.

Hurrah

I hate the Moaning idiot
great rider but needs to keep his mouth closed
Much like Lorenzo really :lol:

Both superb riders but charisma has passed them by.

RIP Sideshow Bob #58 :(
he bought the fun back into Moto GP for me

I don't care about his personality, I just like to watch him ride. His riding style is what the word "awesome" was invented to describe :lol:

But wasn't it a treat to see the Doctor get the best of him on Sunday?

But who's going to get his ride on the best bike in the world next year, that's the question? I'd wager Dovizioso, Rossi or Lorenzo. And Crutchlow to take Spies's ride on the works Yamaha.
