MOTOGP » Raikkonen compliments Stoner

About Aussies.

We do have a bit of an inferiority complex when it comes to our sporting/cultural records and criticism is taken as a national insult, I think it's this complex that makes us more detemmined to achieve , so it's a double edged sword.

On the plus side most of us know a lot more about the world than the average American.

reporting from the **** end of the world

cheers.

Just remember that if it wasn't for the Australians from the WW 1 & 2. Half these people on this site would be speaking German lol.
Anyway nice comments from the fin and bring on this yr. All the best to all rides and to everyone else.
Looking forward to reading every other persons comments, both positive and negative throughout the yr.

Rob Wilson, I hope you are not talking for all Australian's,I believe really that you have made a Typo and it should have been superiority complex the reason Australians have this complex is because we are superior

The readers comments are info then the column. Keep it up boys see ha at the Island

Aussies don't have an superiority or inferiority complex. We are just the best at what we do because of our aggression and ambition to be No#1.

Thank you for you honesty Rob,
the reactions from your fellow countrymen prove your point

Also we dont tolerate mediocrity, it either has to be dodgy or the best you can do either is acceptable.

The Castiglione brothers had close links with Ferrari when they owned Cagiva and used their links to analyse a recording of Suzukis new engine note and hence the big bang era was born

Whatever Ace,
for all you Aussies here's an interview with Stoner and Vermeulen, happy gloating

Thanks for the insult Rob...Your comment about Americans reflects your country's hundred years history as a penal colony. Cheers right back
