For those of you who think the race is going to be boring go and watch cricket!, sometimes races are more exciting than others but they are never boring. And why is Stoner a boring rider?? he is the most awsome rider to watch at the moment !, you could put him on any bike and he would be fast, including the nsr500, he has adapted to tc and the electronics which all the current motogp bikes use and uses it fully and he would adapt if you banned tc no problems, he is not a second rate rider he is the worlds best right now (see : World Champion) its up to the others to catch up not for him to slow down. Go Casey dont back off!!!
