Will it be No.2 for Casey??

    We always watch the MotoGp and the Superbikes.

    Casey is riding well but I really don't like Casey which stems from previous race meetings as he is a good sport when he wins but when its not going his way he is like a spoilt little kid wanting his own way. Wish him all the best but I would rather see Ben Spies or Rossi win the championship.

    As for the Superbikes it would be nice to Checa win a World Championship as he is always the bridesmaid.

    I think it is amusing seeing Rossi struggle on the ducati - Stoner made it look a much bike better last season.
    Now if we can just get Casey on a HD and winning !

    Yeah he's a home grown boy so I'm hoping he'll get another Championship to fly the Aussie flag, but on pure talent - and likeability - I can't go past Valentino.

    How about Rossis' comment last year 'bout Casey not riding the Duke to it's capacity. Pfft, Casey new the Duke wasnt right, now Rossi's riding the Duke, and where is he?? GO Casey, you're an inspiration mate

    Spot on FatboyMick, if Casey wanted to be a smartass he could ask Rossi why he isn't riding the Duke to it's ability this year ?? But when he is that far in front, Rossi probably wouldn't hear him anyway ?? The only thing Casey ever said that i didn't agree with is that most people who watch Moto GP don't really care about racing as much as they care about their favorite rider, but then, he is probably right about that too. Go you good thing. Oh yeah, go QLD. It will be about 48 series in a row if they win tomorrow night won't it ?? I've lost count.

    Be great to see him win a few more titles, the boy's got talent!

    Check the lean angle in this pic  .

    Iv'e tried to get the heritage this low but it's just not a happening thing.

    love the moto gp and superbikes all those boys can ride. worked with Casey's uncle years ago, he was telling me how his parents mortgaged the house to hilt to get him a start, I remember him telling me that max biaggi had said early on in casey's career , that he would be a rider at the top level. He said its easier to get a fast rider to stay on his bike than it is to get a good rider to go faster----must be that no fear factor--I think he would have been further ahead if he had finished in the second race when rossi took him out. Great comment he made then to rossi and i quote " your ambition clearly outshone your ability" Go Casey, you deserve another world title.--cheers Grim

    the recent ride in the wet was outstanding...he will win by a fair margin this year...i think he has a few more left in him as well...and that pic is outrageous, i did that as well except mine was on the way down leading to an messy outcome.

    Yeah Fangio thats the only difference between us and him, we can get down to the lean angles but we just can't get up from them. On another note, one of my workmates got nicknamed Fangio because a HQ holden overtook he and his wife on their Ducati Monster going up Maleny range on the northside of Brissy. Now thats embarrising.

    The best thing Casey done was to ditch Ducati and go with Honda.
    Obviously not regrettiing it.

    Love the Superbikes as well.

    With the MotoGP going to 1000 cc next year it makes me wonder when the two formats will become one.

    Shit, how many races do you want Stoner to have under his belt and, his comments have only distracted him enough to outride Rossi in the wet ?? I thought he handled the incident in quite a relaxed way, with a smile on his face + you will never be a champion if you put anyone on a pedistal (including Rossi) or treat them with any more respect than they show you. Respect is one thing, bowing down is another. I say, good onya Stoner and keep sticking to him. Maybe Rossi should have respected Stoner a little more last year when he said Stoner wasn't riding the Ducati to it's potential. Eating his words now eh ?? Isn't it funny how no one wants to give Rossi a hard time for not respecting Stoner but they can't wait to  jump on Stoner for anything he says against Rossi ?? I think Rossi might be a tad gay, i never see him with a girlfriend ? Just lotsa guys hanging round, whats with that ??

    Well lets hope we find out Dave, Rossi's proven to be one of the greatest of all time but he doesn't seem to impress our lad too much. So if Casey believes in himself then what choice have i got but to believe him. I am an Ozzie after all and he does keep wipping his arse + i get sick of all the after race rubbish when Rossi wins. Oh yeah, isn't Rossi riding Casey's Ducati Dave ??  It's just not up the front any more ??

    Yeah Flan, i don't really think Stoner believes that Rossi's ambition is greater than his skill but i think he had to say something to Rossi after he ran him off the track and out of the race. I'm sure Stoners crew would have helped him decide what to say to Rossi long before he arrived in Stoners shed. I thought Rossi was a bit rude not even taking his helmet off to appologise and i thought that was an admission of guilt in itself because he was probably thinking Stoner might take a swing at him ??

    No, not worth hanging him for but certainly not something to be happy about. A bit of impatience and bad judjement i think.
