oops, I meant Stoner:

"Third in the championship, Stoner’s shot at his second title has ended due to a mysterious illness that will keep him out of next three races"

So have they called you yet to fill in? LOL! Good news is Fabrizio will be called out of WSBK to help out the satellite Duc squad and wont be around to take out Spies for a while.

As for Stoner he has the same condition Mat Mladin rode thru on his way to championship number 6...

Kallio is replacing him (it's in the article I linked)

Yup and Fabrizio is replacing Kallio on Luca Checcinellos sattelite team. Should be a good show but Stoner is the only one fast on the Duc. Hayden may benefit from all the attention if the team puts emphasis on his side of the garage...

Oops i mispoke. Campinoti owns the Pramac squad not Checcinelo...

so who is riding for fab?

smileyman · 08-11-2009, 03:06 PM

I still havent gotten that far, perhaps the dates wont coincide with his WSBK duties. Bet swapping bikes will be hard to do...

The WSBK grid has a tough season itself:

Max Neukirchner is still in a back brache
Regis Laconi is out for good
Xaus broke his femur (he might be back the next race)
Haga is fallling apart (he needed this break)
Hopper is hobbling

who did I miss?

Roadracing was always a battle of attrition from the days of old. With todays medical advances they just get patched up quicker. Good thing is safety has improved so you have less death to deal with....Crashing hurts and sux but how else are you going to find the limits...

another place where bikes are a hell of a lot more exciting than cars. that X factor of a rider manning out the pain really adds to the excitement
