And good luck to him and best of luck for this season.
He certainly has proved that his first win was no fluke.
I saw his media conferance this morning and it sounds like it's all the off track BS that has taken the enjoyment out of it for him.
There's a job vacancy at the Wiggles.

I think he is very sensible, quite  while your ahead, go out a winner, not the old boy losing all the time, Look at rossi, he needs to give it up too.

I'm a massive Stoner fan .. being an ex road racer I absolutely love watching him ride as his style is superb.  So whilst I appreciate it's completely his decision to make I have to admit that I'm really disappointed to hear it.

Sad to see him retire, going to be hard to watch motogp now  :'(  Wonder if he'll turn up in a v8 supercar?

It will be interesting to watch all the manoeuvrings for his vacant seat, Rossi back to Honda??

Way is clear for Marq Marqez to fill the seat(after HRC get the rookie rules changed)

Certainly came as bit of a shock and better get to PI to watch him through 'Stoner Corner' which trust me will live with you forever.
Good luck Casey and it's been a pleasure watching you.

Screw the Supercraps  ;)

How good would it be to see him back at Taree next January with this guy perhaps?



Cheers

I reckon that'll be on the cards Shaun, once he's free from the restraints of a team contract I think we'll see him doing more things like that, that'll bring the crowds back.

Good on him. Been racing since he was four,a world title and married by 22, has won at all circuits, nothing left to prove, made Rossi look a prick and still can't cut an even break from the press or myopic web trolls no matter what he does : why not kick back and try to achieve some degree of normality about his life for the first time ever ?
In 50 years of watching bike racing, for balls and bike control I reckon that little bloke's the best I've seen.

BUT, there's a title to win first.... 8)

Hoping he wins the remaining GP's by miles. Better get those gp tickets.
