Ailing Stoner opts for lighter clutch

the more this goes on, the more I'm sure he's got a few problems upstairs and not as much wrong physically as he makes out.

 He's never come across as a well balanced individual with a bit to spare for a laugh and a joke, and as a very distant, totally unqualified, but very interested observer I think he takes everything too seriously, and I don't think he knows how to deal with getting beaten.

He's a regular at excuse making and blaming anyone/thing when he doesn't get best, and I think this is symptomatic of someone that isn't always dealing with it in a balanced way.

Hope they find a medicine that sorts him out, because he's a superb racer when he's on it, but I have a feeling they'll only find a cure deep into a session or 3 on a comfy leather reclining chair....

Stoner the moaner, if he doesn't win there is something wrong with him or the bike. He never admits that the other riders are doing a better job than him. I think he has Yamahalitis in the head. He can ride very fast but can't race, if he is in the front and pulling a gap, everything is fine, just don't let anyone challenge him, because he came up the ranks you know! I don't know where he thinks Rossi and Lorenzo came from, maybe Mars or Venus.

I agree with the 2 previous comments, however maybe it's a good time to give him the rest of the year off & offer his ride to Troy Bayliss. I'm a Rossi fan but what a race that would be!

I agree fully, Stoner has head problems, he's been listening to all the whinging Poms instead of concentrating on his riding.

Stoner is following in the footsteps of the great, freddie Spencer comes to mind. He's folded.
