The grass is always greener and whatnot, when his son starts being a little shit, he'll be back on a bike (probably won't be a honda though).

This is the funniest post I've seen in years. You must be so stoked Rossi isn't moaning about his 'lesser kit' this year then eh.
Never mind that before the Ducati he's never had anything but THE best kit.

the yamaha wasn't the best kit, the best it had finished prior to rossi getting on it was a 3rd in the wet!

Was better than ok like! On a serious note...I doubt many will miss Stoner from a racer point of view. But I for one, am glad I was around to witness his riding skills. Be a while before we see someone that agressive and loose on a Moto GP bike again I reckon.
Hat's off to him.

Yup, Rossi does his fair share of whinging.
However, Stoners little rant last week ignored all sorts of inconvenient facts - like most of what he was complaining about was done at the behest of current employer.
During 1992 - 2011 the MSMA (ie. Japanese manufacturers) had complete control over technical regulations, ceded to them by Dorna in order to get them on side in the breakaway from the cronyism of the bad old FIM-run series.

Think you'll fine the major problem with the Yamaha was actually the guys riding it before Rossi got there. It obviously wasn't miles away from being good. After all...he actually fixed the Yamaha. Something he's not been able to do to the Ducati.
Ducatisti
they were actually very good riders: Carlos Checa, The great Norick Abe, Marco Melandri, Alex Barros, Shinya Nakano some of the most experienced from 500cc days!!!
It wasn't a front runner, no doubt about it!

They're all very good riders in Moto GP (well, before you could get your rich Daddy to buy you a CRT bike anyway), but I'm sorry, none of those guys are or ever were on the Lorenzo, Rossi, Stoner level of ability.

Ah well, there are still 14 races left this year to enjoy seeing Casey do his thing on a MotoGP bike.
Ducatisti
they were all capable of podium finishes! or at least at the pointy end of the field.
I wonder if Stoner will slowly lose the will to fight in the latter part of the year???

Aye. I'll try extra hard to get to PI again after reading this.
Love him or hate him, you can't help but admit he's a fucking weapon. Still...someone faster and better always comes along. I'll find another BF again some day.

He doesn't strike me as someone like that — too big a competitive streak methinks.
Good idea.
Ducatisti
yet he's retiring while he's competitive!
I don't reckon he will, but in the last few races if the championship is sewn up he won't see a reason to push too hard i'm sure.

In terms of Boyfriends, I'm sure there's plenty of prettier guys in Motogp you could have gone for, perhaps you like the teethy lookLove him or hate him, you can't help but admit he's a fucking weapon. Still...someone faster and better always comes along. I'll find another BF again some day.
