Casey Stoner out !!!!
just saw a quick piece on the news last night that Casey Stoner crashed during practise or quailifying and has broken his collar bone and will miss the race tonight.
Shame for Casey as he seemed to be starting to come to grips with things and put some good results together. he's had a rough year thats for sure with a number of big crashes , there is no doubt he has the talent but he just needs to stay on the bike. anyway i hope this wont keep him out of action for too long. |

Stoner is one of those riders that are always on the edge & to be honest i'm suprised it's taken him this long to suffer a serious injury, hopefully he can make a quick recovery.

7 weeks at least it seems
A rider can race with a broken collarbone that has started to knit and heal, but cant do that on top of a broken wrist, which is what has happened in Casey's case |

This was the way he landed rather than being the fault of the rider. Just a bad fall, which can happen to any rider...just ask Ant West.
