After crashing out of the Czech GP Casey Stoner now sits 50 points behind the doctor Valentino Rossi. With 6 rounds to go in the season do you think Casey can pull the gap to Rossi back and put himself in a position where he could clinch his 2nd title?
I'm no MotoGP expert, but I think another slip up from Casey will all but hand Rossi the championship. He badly needs a win next week at San Marino, how did he go there last year?

i hope he wins and he could still win the series. there has been alot of championship changing things happen this year so don't count him out just yet.

i voted no because even if he can win every race Rossi is unlikly going to stuff up and if Pedrosa and michelin can get back to their best more points could go else where. Bring on 09.

i think he has cracked under the pressure of being the defending world champion and having to fight to keep the number 1. it is unlucky for him as the last couple of races hasn't gone his way.

I think injury has ruined casey's year.....but i think next year he'll be double quick....The loss will do him well....the bikes only gettin better and Casey will too.....he's not been in Moto gp that long compared to the others......he is known as a crasher but... I think he"ll win races this year still. Rossi can't lose really...he is THE DOCTOR....Casey needs to be smarter,not quicker!

when casey finally has his hand operated on to fix his injury he will be back to riding at his fastest and best.
No disrespect to Rossi but this year was hampered with wrong engine mapping at the start and injury at the last 3 or 4 races so in 09 with rehab on his hand complete, nicky hayden as his team mate and an already impressive 09 model ducati under his bum look out moto gp field.
