    As opposed to the rest of the field who love to tow other riders around for a couple of hot laps or get baulked on their quick qualifier...

    It bemuses me what the public actually want from riders, a plastic facade or who they really are? Not everyone can be a bubbly, charismatic personality like Rossi. In fact most aren't and if they try to be then they get lambasted for being a copy-cat.
    Casey tends to generally be fairly quiet but he'll also openly speak his mind. He'll wear his heart on his sleeve and if he's cranky because of a disappointing result, you'll see him cranky. If he's happy from a good result then you'll get a big grin. And he doesn't make excuses. If he had a problem, he'll say that. If the others were just too fast then he'll say that too. And when he has a good result or wins then he heaps praise on his team. What more do people want?

    stoner sems to want more room on the track than almost anyone else.

    rossi seems to be the most friendly rider. he gets baulked-- and shakes it off. he is followed--no problem.

    stoner displays the worst on-track manners, imo.
    mmmmm, makes a nice sandwich. a nice sandwich.

    Rossi has cracked the sads numerous times when riders have continually followed him, most notably John Hopkins.

    You're intitled to your own opinion, but you've simply got to be kidding me. IMO you are way out in left field and completely off the mark.

    Criticism of Casey Stoner.............What a load of crud!!!!!!!!!
    If you haven't noticed, all of the Australian riders are generally quiet.....some may say cool......don't blow their bags when they win and don't normally can the opposition win or lose.
    They're serious about their racing, they and their families lay it all on the line for them to race so far from home as do other non-European racers and "big-deal" if they look a bit downcast or say it as it is when they feel that their perfomance or that of their bike has not been up to their abilities and/or expectations.
    They're out there to compete, survive on the world stage, win if at all possible and help their sponsors maintain and/or increase sales.
    So critics...... get a grip and go put your head back where the sun don't shine and maybe........just maybe when you pull it out again, you'll have a clearer view of what it's all about and what's important to these riders who provide this exciting entertainment for us all to enjoy.

    PS..........I once saw Danny Pedrosa smile!
