    What an awesome young man. He choose his young family over fam and glory. A true champion

    As an average racer (me) with Phillip Island being my home track for 15 years. Turn 3 was and still is arguably the most difficult to get in and out of quickly. I was sooo glad they named the corner after him. Well deserved respect. Especially when you think about Australia’s most dominant GOAT (Doohan) who ended up having turn one named after him only because he slid out whilst entering it during his last race when he was miles in front of everyone. I was sitting directly across from it and still can’t believe his mistake. Stoner was simply pure class at a level above anyone else at that time. Respect! 👍😎

    I used to love watching stoner and rossi battle it out in those races, it made for electric racing because you knew stoner was wrestling that ducati around, by rights that bike shouldn't have been able to beat others because of its handling issues and some tech issues i recall but stoner took that bike and wrestled it around to glory, its a great shame we couldn't have seen him racing further into his career but his health unfortunately put a stop to that, I'm glad now he's getting better, and thanks for all the great racing casey we miss you out there.

    Ducati hired Valentino Rossi to ride the over powered Ducati thinking he’d be their great white hope, he soon found out in one season that he couldn’t tame that wild horse. Along came Casey Stoner he not only tamed that wild horse he rode it to 2 world champion ships, yes he rode on the edge and I think that bike had as much respect for Casey as Casey had for the bike, it was like a symbiotic relationship. I personally think that Casey had 2 more world champion ships in him maybe more, making him as good as if not better than Doohan had medical problems not shortened his career.

    Could get speed out of a bike no one else could.The number one Alien for me.
    Would have more championships but his mental game and racecraft wasn't as strong as his ability on the bike. Let too much worry him on and off the track.
    Amazing rider and stellar career. Would be my pick to set fastest lap on any bike in modern era.

    • @ChrisParsons-i1r
      @ChrisParsons-i1r Місяць тому +10

      Casey overcame the inherent lack of front grip on the Ducati by using his dirt track (flat track not motor cross) skills. He worked out if you slid the back end going INTO a corner it was impossible to loose the front - hence turn 3 at Philip Island being named after him. His interview on Gypsytales YT channel was an absolute masterclass in physics, bike handling and having balls of steel. There’s a reason he still works as a rider coach/mentor for selected riders in todays MotoGP

    Ducati didn't listen to Stoner like they listened to Rossi, Rossi got so many chassis to try and other upgrades in his 2 years, Stoner was ignored and got very little that he wanted from Ducati while Ducati just assumed it was his illness that had slowed him, not their bike. Stoner's 2011 season was equivalent to Doohan's 1997 season and Marquez's 2019 season, a true ALIEN of the sport. Oh and Laguna 2008, Rossi played dirty, something that made me lose so much respect for him, something which we saw Rossi do many times to his rivals.

A truly remarkable and exciting rider to watch.

The same Honda that Dani had rode for a few years without a lot of success, and also the bike had been modeled for his stature and style.

That ability to both talk, listen to, and coerce a motorcycle to do his bidding is probably his most defining quality. Degrading tyres especially are his forté.

    Sorry Robert, but you seem to have only half the facts, maybe less.
    Firstly, he won the championship for Ducati on a bike no one else could ride.
    Next year he was even quicker......2nd or 3rd race of the season he was about 1 full sec quicker than everyone in practise, then qualified about a second quicker.
    On the warm up lap, there was something wrong with his bike.....so wrong he pulled off the grid and stopped beside the pit wall.
    Turned out that the bike was fine, just slowed down .
    The team had changed the engine mapping to help Marco Melandri stay on it, but they didn't tell Casey or his chief mechanic.
    After that, Casey and Ducati were finnished as a team.......then the carpel tunnel problem etc
    So he eventually went to Honda......different bike and different riding style, but Casey was quicker on the Honda than on the Ducati......so he won a 2nd title.
    Following year he was even quicker until the new tyres.. ....mickey mouse tyres that only lasted about 5 laps at Stoner speeds, but lasted about 20 laps at slower speeds.
    Casey was nobled twice , first by Ducati who believed Melandri was just as good, the by the officials who gained NO personal kickback from an Australian champion......all the money was in Europe, Japan and the USA.
    An Australian champion was not profitable......the crooks wanted a Spanish or Italian champion and the Japanese wanted special tyres for their slow riders.
