I can understand why Casey is angry. I think he got treated pretty badly by Ducati.

When Casey left Ducati and Jeremy burgess and Rossi joined Ducati they basically said that Stoner was inadequate and not able to manipulate the Ducati for results. I think they should have waited a while before stating their minds.

What does he have to gain by saying any of this?

He's a bit of a conniving little bitch these days... No doubt in my mind he may have been treated wrongly when he was at Ducati, but why on earth does he need to go around slandering them? He might say they care more about looks than performance, but he seems to care more about media stir ups and controversy than getting on with his job.

He is upset because he just found out the $275 Corse leather suit he ordered from Ducati online is not going to be delivered.

he is a dick, end of conversation.

I don't question is riding ability, I question his piss poor attitude, if it wasn't for ducati providing him with the bike he won the championship on and many podiums to follow, Honda probably wouldnt have offered him his current ride.

He felt he was entitled. And when the "entitled" don't get what they feel is right to them, they get angry. Then they throw a fit. Its everything that a parent who has had a toddler has experienced.

Let's face it - most racers are Prima donnas. Case proven. (One reason i like Hayden - he's pretty chill.)

I think it's more of a Stoner vs Rossi and they haven't given him credit for winning with this bike when everyone else can't hardly get on the podium?
