MOTOGP » Stoner: Less confidence, more aggression

I'm sure they will get on very well as both have a similar IQ.!!

Least it's not quite as low as yours given that comment Tony.

Here's hoping for a great season and plenty of fighting for places. If we get that then i'll be a happy lad

Casy Stoner is just a traction control abuser

More aggression??? It was over-riding the bike that cost him dear on several occasions last season. More race craft is what's needed.

I wish Casey and Nickie well
The closer the racing the better when casey or val run away much of the spectical is lost

will casey be as friendly if nicky starts beating him on a regular basis?

I don't reckon Nicky will beat Casey but I do think he will do well and impress a lot of people. I think finishing in the top 6 this year will impress lots of people (invluding me) as nobody apart from Casey has managed to "ride" that 800cc Ducati, plus I reckon he'll get at least a podium. I hope he does well, Hayden's a good guy...

As for Casey, I reckon Toon said it right. Stoner's comment is directly related to the Laguna Seca race, where Rossi's "agressive" riding lost him the Race... There is a difference between agressive riding and race craft. Hope Casey knows the difference and doen't turn into Randy "skittle as many as you can" DePuniet!

Whether you like this guy or not MotoGP needs him to keep it interesting. Without him it will just be RossiGP other than maybe 1 or 2 races.

Good luck for next year Casey and I'm looking forward to the aggressive approach.

It will be interesting to see how much training he was able to do. Im sure stoner will be quick though.
Mind you is it me or has he lost a bit of weight around the face?
looks a bit gaunt.

I can't see Nicky Hayden beating Stoner on the Ducati, but hey, you never know
