2012 MotoGP

You should've stayed at PI. There was your chance!

Was really just going for the ride today, don't have a ticket for today just tomorrow.

Has anyone ever gone threw the records of Australian sport and compared their record at home with Casey Stoners record in the AGP?

We know you couldn't get Bradman out in Adelaide or a decent score off Warne at the SCG.

What about in motorsport the world over? Senna brained them at monaco, but that wasn't his home GP, same as Brock at Mt panorama.

Actually I forgot about Doohan, you only beat him if his leg was broke or he couldn't be bothered.

I didn't mean attending the race, I meant replacing Spies.

Oh lmao. Woosh - straight over my head. I wish mate. I would love to do it, but ill have to start at a lower grade unfortunately. And get people to pay for me

Nup. I'm sure there are some Aussie tennis players that won the Aus open 10 times, in the 50s/60s.

Prost is a 6 time French GP winner. Rossi has won the Italian Motogp 7 times (on the trot as well), plus two more at Misano.

Actually I forgot about Doohan, you only beat him if his leg was broke or he couldn't be bothered.

Or if he did a howler (like in 97), or if Criville runs into him (like in 96), or if Wayne Rainey was around (who's better than him).

I was petrified when when Casey went off sounds like he hurt his hip but will be ok.

Great ride by Sissis to get on the podium in Moto3.

[mattys123]

Well done Ant West, all going well for the Aussies today, now for the big one.

Onya Westy

Pedrosa down, wow, that's the world championship to Lorenzo if he can stay upright. Stoner should win.

 

[mattys123]

Congratulations to Casey on the win, and Jorge on the world championship.

I had come back from playing cricket, just missed the start of the MotoGP race, missed everything else. Effin spewing! What a cracking day for Australian riders! Despite what happened last week I wasn't expecting West to back up with another podium. We got pumped as well

 

[JUBJUB]

I gather that's the first time ever that there's been an Aussie on the podium in all 3 series on the same day.
In fact apart from West & Stoner I can't think of another Aussie to finish on the podium in the 2 lower classes.

Garry McCoy perhaps ?

What a day for Aussie motorcycling. The guy is as good as anyone ive seen in the 20 odd years ive watched the sport.

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

That was a great way to go out in front of his fans.

West & Sissis did us proud also

Shame about Miller jump starting the only low point for Australia.

and Kris McLaren not qualifying due to the 107% rule

 

[Jakko]

Well done Casey and congratulations on your career. Shame it couldnt have been a world title, but youve got out of the sport while youre still alive and not in a wheelchair.

 

[AM]

Sensational effort by Casey today considering the physical and mental pressure he was under. Going to miss him on the circuit next year. All that is left for me next year is to will Rossi to fail. Is that so wrong?

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

It's also worth mentioning that Marc Marquez the rider replacing Casey has taken out Moto2 for this year.

What a weekend! Sissis, West and Casey! Was awesome to be there! Cheers for the info on viewing Klynt managed to see most of them on Saturday but settled for a spot off the straight going around the first bend for Sundays races, so i could see them coming down the straight then off onto the back of the circuit. Was Crazy seeing them live! They really do have balls of steel, their talent is unquestionable! Just watched the replays on TV and the real downer was Dani going down! Would have been a lot more entertaining if him and Jorge battled it out. Now really looking foward too (or not) seeing Casey's last race. Let's go out with a win!

Ant West won't be racing in the final round at Valencia.He's banned for a month due to a doping transgression in May
