Ben Spies had said that he was blown away by Stoner, as he could hit the same marks within millimeters, lap after lap while riding on the edge. Nobody else could do this like Stoner. I wish we could have seen his career last longer, but it was magic while it lasted!
Aussies have a good record on tricky bikes. Doohan threw a saddle on the Honda 2 stroke when many walked away - a treat to watch coming out of a corner.
Casey is a phenomenal talent. I would suggest reading his autobiography. However, one thing that you missed on this video. How much his parents sacrificed, and how hard they worked to get him to where he ended up.
One of the best vids on RUclips... loved watching Stoner from his beginning through to retirement. He's also a keen fisherman. That just tops it off... Great bloke!
I was amazed by Casey when he was a young boy. I would watch him race at Loxford park. He raced in 60cc, 80cc, 80cc big wheel and 125cc. The day he amazed me he won all but one race. He came second in a 125 race. 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! 👍😎
Man what a video you made, great tribute to one of my top 3 favorite riders in Motogp history, how great he was as a rider; some years ago I also read his autobiography, it's very interesting and full of curious facts and events, regarding for example his childhood and the minibikes. I recommend it to you if you didn't read it. Cheers man, keep up the good work✌🏼🔥
Man in missed those days, bikes were sexy af. And Gary On the Kawasaki power sliding for the first time.... This era of racing from the switch for two stroke to for stroke, let bike to 800cc all of it was so exciting because it was rider talent not machine development. I wish they would drop aero, turbulent air is dangerous. DANG Nicky. Miss you mate.
For me he was one of the fastest riders to ever throw a leg over. Beautiful to watch. 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.
I certainly miss Casey's participation in MotoGP, but it was such a pleasure to be watching during his glory days. There have been many great champions, no doubt, but watching Casey ride have been my favorite years of the best motorsport on the planet. As a religious MotoGP couch potato, I don't believe I have seen so many rivals of one particular rider give so much praise, respect and truthful admiration to any one rider in the same way they do with Casey. A truly remarkable and exciting rider to watch.
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
You just can’t ignore this man’s talent because he was on top of his game, when Rossi rode for Ducati he couldn’t get on with them at all. That proves how good Casey was.👏🏻
You have made a great short story about Casey. I wish someone would make a feature film about his life including the real sacrifice his parents made for him. He truly was a magical competitor.

Remember when rossi went to ducati. Rossi fanboy said, let daddy rossi teach you how to ride a rocket bike. With that top speed is auto win, stoner jjst sucks. Reality check: rossi losing the front the crashing all the time. Barely outperform his teammate nicky hayden who is already on his way out of motogp. Rossi cried and went crawling back to yamah realizing how bad ducati was and how insane stoner is for riding that
Casey Stoner was something special but unfortunately he didn't reach his full potential due to his illness. I love to see him race and make a dog of a bike look good
I remember them riding two completely different bikes as well. Funny people always leave that part out! I guess that's why Ducati came out and said they should of listened to Rossi 😂
@@bearcatracing007 LOLOL don't lie. ducati never said that. rossi even said "sorry" about his time with ducati was dissapointing. rossi spent 2 years with ducati. the first year was the same bike as stoner. before stoner left, stoner and hayden were complaining to ducati for new parts to test and there were literally nothing new from ducati to test. the moment rossi sign with ducati, italian rider riding italian brand and the biggest name in motogp rossi. ducati increased their budget by a few times. gave rossi new parts as well to test but he failed they tried to adjust the bike to mimic more like japan brand bike as well with the ducati and it didn't work. rossi and mm93 fanboy,s can you guys don't lower yourself to lying ?
@@bearcatracing007Ducatis bikes have only gotten better since stoner. Stoner riding the Least capable. Proving, Rossi was racing in the least competitive era ever. After Doohan, but before Lorenzo. Name another rider who was considered competitive in that era. Na, Rossi wasn’t “that good”. He was just in the best bikes after his first ship.
I have spent much time thinking about my favourite rider, I don`t do that any more. Thinking about THE most skilled, I decided a few years ago, Casey Stoner.
Won ktm 125cc first win. Won Ducati first win when no one else did. Won Honda first win since Nicky. Tested honda til 2014. Then tested Ducati until 2018 private test. A true legend and would beat anyone today.
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.
Casey was good, started racing as a full time racer at 14, Rossi use to say to the media that Stoner was only good because the Ducati had an unfair power advantage, that came an bit Rossi on the bum when in 2011 he himself raced Ducati's for 2 years, without any success, thats when Rossi realised how good Stoner really was, it was sad that Casey had to bail for personal reasons, but that was the cards that were handed to him. The video of Casey and Rossi Flat Tracking is great, really worth while watching two champions having fun together.
@@michaelwomack9186 The only reason Rossi won 9 championships was that Casey wasn't there to challenge him, Rossi had to play mind games cause he lacked raw talent like Stoner!
I remember Casey saying when he got off the bike he was a physical wreck & my Dad used to say bike racing was in German a heisses offen ( hot oven) last I heard Casey had chronic fatigue syndrome apparently he is a good mountain bike rider🏁👍😎
This video made is sound a bit too unimportant for my liking. Stoner's number one skill which he honed over his whole racing life is getting on hundreds and hundreds of different motorcycles and riding them quickly and skillfully after a very short acclimatisation period. 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.
Not a rossi fan but the hype of moaner is unbelievable. Like rossi. He's done, gone. Only comes out the woodwork to bitch and moan and try to make himself relevant again
His an Aussie ledged and if he could have kept racing i don't think Rossie would have been so successful later on. He battled major health problems and still won.. If them health problems were treatable i could still see him racing today in his mid 30s
Just like what casey said that "too many electronic on motogp bike today". And also there are aerodynamic stuffs. Today, winning the series, 60% determained by the bike, not the rider skill. That's why casey said "motogp is no fun anymore" I think today it's to complicated about motogp technology. Not simplified. Just like Andrea Iannone said when he was as Sepang wild card on VR46 team. If Casey Stoner VS Marc Marques, both are old school, i think it would be 50:50 But if Casey Stoner VS Pecco, i think it would be 57:43 for Casey Stoner. Who Knows....👃👃👃😁😁😁
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.
Don't think Rossi was frightened think it was more the other way round stoner superb racer but could not dog fight which is called for sometimes after all it is not a knitting circle
Hadn't the bottle for it????!!!! Saw an interview with Casey and he was asked about one particular corner on one track that he took differently to everyone else. Casey's explanation was he didn't like the feel of the front end through that corner as it threatened to tuck under so he would slide the back out to get some opposite lock in the front to push the tyre into the corner. So deliberately setting a bike up sideways into a corner at over 200 kmh and he had no bottle?? To quote a response to a famous revhead "I don't think so Tim".😂
Stewart, you don't read much, or you are just trolling for comments an arguments? That was one helluva long and impressive racing career, prematurely ended due to CFS. Stoner's racing career began with 41 national titles and 70 state titles by the age of 14. He made his GP debut in 2001 as a 125cc wildcard at Donington Park. He joined the premier class in 2006 and switched to Ducati in 2007.

Casey Stoner’s Battle with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Australian champion Casey Stoner fell off the proverbial cliff after recording another routine victory at the opening round in Qatar. No one could figure out why. In qualifying, he’d still beat everyone, frequently by more than a half-second. Following the spectacular failure of the Catalan Grand Prix, Stoner made the unexpected decision to take a mid-season break. At first, it was thought to be burnout. Return after a round or two of rest. The truth was significantly more complicated. Stoner was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue after multiple tests and consultations back in Australia. The Queensland-born champion went public with his CFS diagnosis and opened up his painful battle. Stoner said he first began feeling symptoms of the syndrome in 2018. “I very quickly went downhill and started to get some extreme symptoms and struggled to get out of bed and get to the couch,” he said. Casey said people could not see the diagnosis because it’s not a physical element, so people aren’t taking it seriously. He said Chronic Fatigue Syndrome has no cure to date. “Currently, we have no cure, and we don’t have enough information on things that can help. Casey got positive feedback after telling the public about his CFS. People are willing to help recognize and understand the situation. “I hope other people out in the world can get support, and this is what we’re doing.” Stoner retired from MotoGP in 2012 after winning the title in 2007 and 2011. He said that the ongoing effects of his chronic fatigue forced him to retire. Casey described the devastating impact his chronic fatigue diagnosis had on his life. Casey said that he got to the point where he couldn’t get off the couch for five months. From bed to the couch was his exercise for the day. Stoner said he couldn’t explain or understand anything. Stoner continues to deal with his terrible chronic fatigue syndrome condition, which has wiped him out entirely in recent years. He still has sore throats, headaches, extreme exhaustion, and trouble thinking. The 36-year-old said the syndrome left him feeling ‘I’m never more than 60 percent of my usual self.’ Casey learned to walk everywhere, which he hated. He always used to jog just around, but now he has to walk. “Since I finished my testing role with Ducati, I got my shoulder reconstruction, and that was fantastic. I’ve struggled massively with my health.

Yeah, Rossi was the best. Until Stoner came along, cool as a cucumber, just kept riding past Rossi. I was a huge Rossi fan, and was very impressed with the way a young Stoner kept his cool and outrode the champ.
A couple of facts... When he won his first WC he had two very big advantages over the rest of the paddock. 1: He was riding the fastest straight line bike 2: he was using Bridgestone tyres. Rossi and the rest of the paddock couldn't get near him. Next year Rossi an co kicked up such a fuss because he had such a big advantage that the rule on tyres was changed allowing the rest of the paddock to run Bridgestones. After that, guess who won that year's WC, yes you guessed it, the man the Moaner hated. If you care to compare the first 12 years of Rossi's Moto GP stats against the Moaners you will find Rossi makes the Moaner's look pretty sad! And before anyone comes out with the statement about how Rossi would fix the Duc in five minutes, it wasn't Rossi who made that claim, it was Burgess Rossi's mechanic! If the Moaner hadn't moaned so much he might have been like and admired by a lot more Moto GP fans.
The rest of the paddock couldn't get near him, including the number one rider in the team, his team mate on the same bike , who had won moto gp races on previous Ducatis
Terrible video. You have people talking about different Ducati bikes. In short, Stoners bike AND Rossi’s bikes were very difficult to ride BUT Stoners bike was considerably faster than everything else on the track whereas when Rossi got on the bike, all the other bikes had caught up and the Ducati had no advantage in Speed. So it was impossible to win on. The riders that followed Ross onto the Ducati had exactly the same problem. The mega speed advantage that Stoner had, had disappeared. Stone was a phenomenal rider but using the Ducati to compare riders around that era is stupid. Great example, is Stoner on the Ducati and Rossi on the Yamaha at Sepang. Awesome race. Also don’t forget stoners last season on the Ducati where he had lost the speed advantage and had a terrible season so he moved to Honda.
I like your logic.(?!) The Ducati was slow before Stoner got on it, and slow after he got off it. Musta been the bike all the time, eh? We were all excited when Rossi went Ducati, and very disappointed with the outcome.
You never saw the early races when a young Stoner dealt with anything Rossi could try? Cool as a cucumber, I knew he was going places after seeing that. And I was a great fan of Rossi. Stoner's racing career began with 41 national titles and 70 state titles by the age of 14. He made his GP debut in 2001 as a 125cc wildcard at Donington Park.

Not denying Stoners talent, but he could not win on the 990. He only won on the 800. Whereas Rossi won on 500 two strokes, 990 and 800 four strokes. Sorry Stoner lovers, but Rossi was better. Bring on the hate lol.
@125kingo125 reaching? Lol. You are funny. Stoner couldn't go fast on a big bore bike. That is history that cannot be changed. Believe a fallacy if you wish.
Rossi is the GOAT but, Stoner unfortunately contracted an immune problem which caused him to fatigue and therefore had to quit racing due to the condition. We will never know what his full potential could have been because of the medical issue so your statement about he couldn't win on the 990 is moot!
@SpudsMcHaggis really? He never won on anything but an 800. He didn't win on 125s. Rossi did. He didn't win on 250s. Rossi did. He didn't win on 900s. Rossi did. Your argument is moot.
@@robertwhite2032 obviously comprehension is not your strong point! I made a statement not an argument! Stoner won the English 125cc Aprilia Championship in 2000 and then moved to the 250cc GP. He skipped the 125cc GP altogether so your point that he didn't win on a 125cc GP bike is moot since he didn't race them! 🤔 Stoner's first year in the 250cc GP (with a satellite team) didn't go well at all but he manged 2nd overall with 5 wins in his next year in the 250's on a satellite team. In 2012 the 1000cc bikes were introduced Casey was suffering pretty bad from his medical condition and also missed 3 races due to ankle surgery and still managed to come 3rd in the championship whereas Rossi came 6th. He retired after that because he could not race anymore and that is the point. We will never know!
Feared ? 😂stoner was one of the greats but nt the best not by far … bro won 2 world championships in so many years.. rossi lorenzo both were better than him… m putting marquez aside coz they never raced… marquez would have dominated against stoner
Your comment is a form of amusement for those who live in the MotoGP paddock however you obviously are a couch potato/ lounge lizard.🥔 & never been either a serious competitor in MotoGP nor qualified as an expert witness. lol 🤣
He's been there,done that and got the t-shirts ,we all liked Rossi till the little Aussie backpack was placed on a bike, i still have my unused Aussie motorcycle GP ticket when Gardener won 1989
In the end, he retired at a time of his own choosing, whilst still at the top. That's very rare, in any sport.
Ben Spies had said that he was blown away by Stoner, as he could hit the same marks within millimeters, lap after lap while riding on the edge. Nobody else could do this like Stoner. I wish we could have seen his career last longer, but it was magic while it lasted!
Yep Magic.

However, one thing that you missed on this video. How much his parents sacrificed, and how hard they worked to get him to where he ended up.

So fast, so down to earth. Made his mark and his money and got out early. Total legend.

One of the reasons was his early dirtbike career, which lead him to ride ‘ on the back wheel ‘ , with little trust in the front wheel.

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.

rossi and mm93 fanboy,s can you guys don't lower yourself to lying ?
@@bearcatracing007Ducatis bikes have only gotten better since stoner. Stoner riding the Least capable. Proving, Rossi was racing in the least competitive era ever. After Doohan, but before Lorenzo. Name another rider who was considered competitive in that era. Na, Rossi wasn’t “that good”. He was just in the best bikes after his first ship.
If Stoner hadn't had the illness he's got MM93 would never ever won so many championships in my opinion Stoner was outstanding
Even in GP racing video games back then, if you choose the Ducati, then you become the back marker. That was until Stoner entered stage.
I have spent much time thinking about my favourite rider, I don`t do that any more. Thinking about THE most skilled, I decided a few years ago, Casey Stoner.
Casey was pure talent 👏 ❤
He admits that corners with Ducati are horrible.❤
History shows that prior to modern day bikes all ducati world titles were won by Australians.
Carl Fogarty ??? to mention just one who was not an aussie
@@TheGazza636 Honorary Aussie. We've claimed him!😆
Bayliss and Corser were awesome to watch
It was sad that he retired so early. He was the reason I watched MotoGP. Haven't watched much eber since.
Won ktm 125cc first win.
Won Ducati first win when no one else did.
Won Honda first win since Nicky.
Tested honda til 2014.
Then tested Ducati until 2018 private test.
A true legend and would beat anyone today.
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.
He retired early because he was starting to get symptoms of a medical condition. He was starting to get very fatigued.
An Aussie legend of motorsport. And there have been a few.....
Casey Stoner admitted in a recent interview that many corners terrified him during a high speed race.
Imagine if he didn't retire at 26...
When I see Toprak, I see him like Stoner. Not coming like these pure talents easily.
Toprak has a stunt rider background; Stoner has a dirt bike background.
not even close... let toprak ride a GP bike then lets tallk
Stoner and Rossi duked out in Valencia in the rain, driving rain, stayed up to the wee hours in then cold dark winter, Stoner was in his own race.
Casey was the best imo but I wish we could've seen him go head to head with Marc.. that would've been epic
If you are a MotoGp rider, don't have children, it will destroy your career
his power has an early limit 😂
6 wins in a row at Phillip Island. One of the fastest tracks on the planet.
KURRI KURRI BOYS RULE THE WORLD ;-)
gay boys world...
Fuck'n oath ❤
Casey was good, started racing as a full time racer at 14, Rossi use to say to the media that Stoner was only good because the Ducati had an unfair power advantage, that came an bit Rossi on the bum when in 2011 he himself raced Ducati's for 2 years, without any success, thats when Rossi realised how good Stoner really was, it was sad that Casey had to bail for personal reasons, but that was the cards that were handed to him. The video of Casey and Rossi Flat Tracking is great, really worth while watching two champions having fun together.
Great Vid. Props...
He is my idol.
He proved how good Rossi wasn’t. Did what Rossi never could.
A friend’s mate was a mechanic with Burgess, when Rossi went to D all he could say was “how did Stoner ride it so fast !!!”
Rossi went from the best bike in the field to the worst and won the first race….. Casey has two championships. Rossi has 9. Seriously…..
@@michaelwomack9186 The only reason Rossi won 9 championships was that Casey wasn't there to challenge him, Rossi had to play mind games cause he lacked raw talent like Stoner!
Rossi was ten times better than stoner!!!
@@johnnyrocket80085 🤣🤣🤣
I remember Casey saying when he got off the bike he was a physical wreck & my Dad used to say bike racing was in German a heisses offen ( hot oven) last I heard Casey had chronic fatigue syndrome apparently he is a good mountain bike rider🏁👍😎
The crazy fact is that there are some dumb Italian journalists that say Bagnaia is "the new Stoner"!
All Stoners are fast .!!!
Bike and machine in harmony good bikes even better rider
This video made is sound a bit too unimportant for my liking. Stoner's number one skill which he honed over his whole racing life is getting on hundreds and hundreds of different motorcycles and riding them quickly and skillfully after a very short acclimatisation period. 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.
A bit of a ridiculous title. Stoner wasn't feared - he was respected.
love the accents!
Turn 3 Philip Island ... the best to do it
Don’t get the mindless Rossi fans throwing shit at Casey, and vice versa.
Not a rossi fan but the hype of moaner is unbelievable. Like rossi. He's done, gone. Only comes out the woodwork to bitch and moan and try to make himself relevant again
His an Aussie ledged and if he could have kept racing i don't think Rossie would have been so successful later on.
He battled major health problems and still won..
If them health problems were treatable i could still see him racing today in his mid 30s
Remains Unmatched. No truer was from a politition lol😅
Couldn't stand the heat in the kitchen....
Just like what casey said that "too many electronic on motogp bike today". And also there are aerodynamic stuffs.
Today, winning the series, 60% determained by the bike, not the rider skill. That's why casey said "motogp is no fun anymore"
I think today it's to complicated about motogp technology. Not simplified. Just like Andrea Iannone said when he was as Sepang wild card on VR46 team.
If Casey Stoner VS Marc Marques, both are old school, i think it would be 50:50
But if Casey Stoner VS Pecco, i think it would be 57:43 for Casey Stoner.
Who Knows....👃👃👃😁😁😁
Casey stoner: hold my beer while i tame this ducati beast.. casey more than tamed that bike. He become at one with it
He retired from Motor racing too early !
03:19 Lol. Aka, he slowed down less
The Europeans are Nancy boys on a good day.
Shut it dirtbag
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.
Don't think Rossi was frightened think it was more the other way round stoner superb racer but could not dog fight which is called for sometimes after all it is not a knitting circle
Rossi should have been penalized for that corkscrew move on Stoner. I bet they would have penalized Stoner if were the other way around.
Drop the captions. It's cheap and it's distracting
Rossi who??
A Prima Donna tw@t
If you have nothing to say, say it over, and over, and over again. Stoner was amazing but this is says nothing… and repeats it….
This is rambling at it's worst. He goes on and on and on about the same crap over and over again! Boring as F!
Wonderful talent , but hadn’t the bottle for it unfortunately
I don't think that anyone who's ever raced would say Casey bottled it. Your comment is pretty disingenuous.
Hadn't the bottle for it????!!!!
Saw an interview with Casey and he was asked about one particular corner on one track that he took differently to everyone else. Casey's explanation was he didn't like the feel of the front end through that corner as it threatened to tuck under so he would slide the back out to get some opposite lock in the front to push the tyre into the corner. So deliberately setting a bike up sideways into a corner at over 200 kmh and he had no bottle?? To quote a response to a famous revhead "I don't think so Tim".😂
Top comment, well thought out Stewart.
A typical whinging Aussie. Moaned for years about Rossi's overtake in America. More to the point, he only won 2 world championships.
Stewart, you don't read much, or you are just trolling for comments an arguments?
That was one helluva long and impressive racing career, prematurely ended due to CFS.
Stoner's racing career began with 41 national titles and 70 state titles by the age of 14. He made his GP debut in 2001 as a 125cc wildcard at Donington Park. He joined the premier class in 2006 and switched to Ducati in 2007.

Casey Stoner’s Battle with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Australian champion Casey Stoner fell off the proverbial cliff after recording another routine victory at the opening round in Qatar. No one could figure out why. In qualifying, he’d still beat everyone, frequently by more than a half-second. Following the spectacular failure of the Catalan Grand Prix, Stoner made the unexpected decision to take a mid-season break.
At first, it was thought to be burnout. Return after a round or two of rest. The truth was significantly more complicated. Stoner was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue after multiple tests and consultations back in Australia.
The Queensland-born champion went public with his CFS diagnosis and opened up his painful battle.
Stoner said he first began feeling symptoms of the syndrome in 2018. “I very quickly went downhill and started to get some extreme symptoms and struggled to get out of bed and get to the couch,” he said.
Casey said people could not see the diagnosis because it’s not a physical element, so people aren’t taking it seriously. He said Chronic Fatigue Syndrome has no cure to date. “Currently, we have no cure, and we don’t have enough information on things that can help.
Casey got positive feedback after telling the public about his CFS. People are willing to help recognize and understand the situation.
“I hope other people out in the world can get support, and this is what we’re doing.”
Stoner retired from MotoGP in 2012 after winning the title in 2007 and 2011. He said that the ongoing effects of his chronic fatigue forced him to retire.
Casey described the devastating impact his chronic fatigue diagnosis had on his life.
Casey said that he got to the point where he couldn’t get off the couch for five months. From bed to the couch was his exercise for the day. Stoner said he couldn’t explain or understand anything.
Stoner continues to deal with his terrible chronic fatigue syndrome condition, which has wiped him out entirely in recent years. He still has sore throats, headaches, extreme exhaustion, and trouble thinking.
The 36-year-old said the syndrome left him feeling ‘I’m never more than 60 percent of my usual self.’
Casey learned to walk everywhere, which he hated. He always used to jog just around, but now he has to walk.
“Since I finished my testing role with Ducati, I got my shoulder reconstruction, and that was fantastic. I’ve struggled massively with my health.
If he was that good why did he quit
Yeah, he was better than good, didn't you watch the video?

🤔Because he didn't want to I guess 🤷♂️
Is this an AI video?
One bike wonder? Albeit he was an exceptional rider
The moaner hated Rossi for one reason, he knew Rossi was better than him!
And this matters why?
Yeah, Rossi was the best. Until Stoner came along, cool as a cucumber, just kept riding past Rossi. I was a huge Rossi fan, and was very impressed with the way a young Stoner kept his cool and outrode the champ.
No one was better than Stoner. Stoner didn't like Rossi because he was a dirty competitor
CTC
🇦🇺💪
FEARED…yeh right🤦♂️
A couple of facts... When he won his first WC he had two very big advantages over the rest of the paddock. 1: He was riding the fastest straight line bike 2: he was using Bridgestone tyres. Rossi and the rest of the paddock couldn't get near him. Next year Rossi an co kicked up such a fuss because he had such a big advantage that the rule on tyres was changed allowing the rest of the paddock to run Bridgestones. After that, guess who won that year's WC, yes you guessed it, the man the Moaner hated. If you care to compare the first 12 years of Rossi's Moto GP stats against the Moaners you will find Rossi makes the Moaner's look pretty sad! And before anyone comes out with the statement about how Rossi would fix the Duc in five minutes, it wasn't Rossi who made that claim, it was Burgess Rossi's mechanic! If the Moaner hadn't moaned so much he might have been like and admired by a lot more Moto GP fans.
The rest of the paddock couldn't get near him, including the number one rider in the team, his team mate on the same bike , who had won moto gp races on previous Ducatis
Look who is moaning. Why not be a man and admit Stoner was champion in his day.
Terrible video. You have people talking about different Ducati bikes. In short, Stoners bike AND Rossi’s bikes were very difficult to ride BUT Stoners bike was considerably faster than everything else on the track whereas when Rossi got on the bike, all the other bikes had caught up and the Ducati had no advantage in Speed. So it was impossible to win on. The riders that followed Ross onto the Ducati had exactly the same problem. The mega speed advantage that Stoner had, had disappeared. Stone was a phenomenal rider but using the Ducati to compare riders around that era is stupid. Great example, is Stoner on the Ducati and Rossi on the Yamaha at Sepang. Awesome race. Also don’t forget stoners last season on the Ducati where he had lost the speed advantage and had a terrible season so he moved to Honda.
I like your logic.(?!) The Ducati was slow before Stoner got on it, and slow after he got off it. Musta been the bike all the time, eh? We were all excited when Rossi went Ducati, and very disappointed with the outcome.
yes great but mentally weak
You never saw the early races when a young Stoner dealt with anything Rossi could try? Cool as a cucumber, I knew he was going places after seeing that. And I was a great fan of Rossi.

Stoner would've not liked racing against Marc Marques. Look what MM did on Stoner's Honda HRC race bike in 2013. Stoner was good, but not MM good ...
Stupid comment, they didn't race each other. You may as well say MM would beat Doohan.
........................
Stoner the whinge bag 😂😂
He was the whiniest rider ever always complaining about contact and so called aggressive riders.. he’s cry baby..
Not denying Stoners talent, but he could not win on the 990. He only won on the 800. Whereas Rossi won on 500 two strokes, 990 and 800 four strokes. Sorry Stoner lovers, but Rossi was better. Bring on the hate lol.
He had one year on the 7th best Honda 990.. as a rookie. But keep reaching
@125kingo125 reaching? Lol. You are funny. Stoner couldn't go fast on a big bore bike. That is history that cannot be changed. Believe a fallacy if you wish.
Rossi is the GOAT but, Stoner unfortunately contracted an immune problem which caused him to fatigue and therefore had to quit racing due to the condition. We will never know what his full potential could have been because of the medical issue so your statement about he couldn't win on the 990 is moot!
@SpudsMcHaggis really? He never won on anything but an 800. He didn't win on 125s. Rossi did. He didn't win on 250s. Rossi did. He didn't win on 900s. Rossi did. Your argument is moot.
@@robertwhite2032 obviously comprehension is not your strong point! I made a statement not an argument!
Stoner won the English 125cc Aprilia Championship in 2000 and then moved to the 250cc GP. He skipped the 125cc GP altogether so your point that he didn't win on a 125cc GP bike is moot since he didn't race them! 🤔
Stoner's first year in the 250cc GP (with a satellite team) didn't go well at all but he manged 2nd overall with 5 wins in his next year in the 250's on a satellite team.
In 2012 the 1000cc bikes were introduced Casey was suffering pretty bad from his medical condition and also missed 3 races due to ankle surgery and still managed to come 3rd in the championship whereas Rossi came 6th. He retired after that because he could not race anymore and that is the point. We will never know!
Feared ? 😂stoner was one of the greats but nt the best not by far … bro won 2 world championships in so many years.. rossi lorenzo both were better than him… m putting marquez aside coz they never raced… marquez would have dominated against stoner
Your comment is a form of amusement for those who live in the MotoGP paddock however you obviously are a couch potato/ lounge lizard.🥔 & never been either a serious competitor in MotoGP nor qualified as an expert witness. lol 🤣
Marqcrash you mean? The guy can only win by dive bombing
Never ask a Rossi fanboy why his worst years were on the Ducati 🤫
@@gelul12 Hope your looking after your seeing eye dog...
Check during his motogp time who won the most. You might be surprised. Stoner dominated and not on the best bike but the 3rd
He's been there,done that and got the t-shirts ,we all liked Rossi till the little Aussie backpack was placed on a bike, i still have my unused Aussie motorcycle GP ticket when Gardener won 1989
Best ever Moto GP rider, could have won a lot more but retired early.
My HERO
Only the best riders win at Phillip Island and je dominated that place like no other bfire or since
