com (yes, always them) who is upsetting Casey Stoner fans with the idea that their champion is thinking of retiring at the end of this season.
Everyone knows that the Stoner just loves to race, but doesn’t like all the BS that surrounds the paddock nor does he always enjoy answering questions and explaining himself, and of late has hinted that he won’t be dragging out this racing career for many years, and with wife Adriana who has been his shadow over these last year’s is now at home with newborn daughter Alessandra, the Australian is starting to feel a little homesick.
Stoner’s contract with Repsol Honda expires at the end of the season and negotiations are already on the table and he has already shown and obtained everything that any rider could want and money never has really been his end game, so many are now doubting that he’ll want to continue and and when Livio Suppo (who orchestrated Stoner’s behind the scenes switch to Honda) was asked if this could be a possibility or just an assumption, Honda’s marketing manager replied, “With Casey this possibility is always realistic.
If you ask me, I say that I don’t know, but it is something I’m afraid of.
He thinks with his own head and knows what he wants.
If he decides to stop I could even understand it, even if I have the feeling that he’ll continue.
