if stoner hadn't won his championship on a duc, he would've been labeled a douche on this board long, long ago...

Absolutely.

I'm surprised for as long as Stoner has been around the game that he's still such a whiny pregnant dog about doing press work.  Every racer--even club racers--knows that it's an integral part of the sport.  You never just get to have someone pay you to race motorcycles and that's it.

I think maybe he might do it alongside the announcement of the assessment announcement of where he thinks his healing is and the time needed after his test on the Sterilgarda WSBK Yamaha today maybe?!?!?!....it'd be nice anyways...

I think Rossi is going to stay at Yamaha and Ducati will end up with Dovi.

Blasphemy!

Stoner just wants to race, he doesn't like the rest of the PR shit, can't say I blame him but yes, it is his job and he should get over it.

I've been less than impressed with Stoner this season but I'm still a fan. I think if Rossi ends up at Ducati, the bike will be quickly made to suit him and Hayden will continue on. I think Rossi's ideal setup will suit Hayden much more than Stoner's ideal setup did.

I thought that occurred to me: I think they made the big bang version of the bike because they knew that Stoner would probably leave and felt it was a better bet to raise average results across the team than invest in Stoner who was going away anyway. Thoughts?

i said virtually the same thing earlier.  this thread, i think.

i kinda doubt it, but it would be funny if the GP11 is a screamer.

Stoner announcement expected today.

Finally the dominoes start falling. I used to respect that little whiney pregnant dog but the last couple of years have really made me dislike him.
