Congratulations Casey Stoner, world champion 2007, the first of many, I`m sure.

Well he just had to finish in the top 6 to win, it was practically a foregone conclusion, no-one is saying who won, maybe he did and maybe he didn't , watch the race !

If Arch is lurking and reading this, it's a shame to watch grown men cry !

Ride on !

Thumbs up

Yeah that was different, not sure if Rossi was too happy with his change of bike/ tyres or that he was just sulking.

The racing has been very good this year. I had stopped watching for a few years because it had become as boring as F1 car GP's. However with the change to 4 strokes and the end of Rossi's domination it has breathed new life into the bike racing.

Well done Casey Stoner

I took care not to mention the race results, just the world championship. All that was revealed is that Stoner finished somewhere in front of Rossi! Sorry if it spoilt your enjoyment but I was in a very euphoric mood and just wanted to post something about it.

It's great to see Casey win, my favorite race this season was Catalunya, was on the edge of my seat the whole race.

I was dissapointed that your message title revealed that Casey won the champianship, I hadn't seen the race yet. What most people do is put the word "spoiler" in the subject title, then a person knows not to read that thread.
Next season should be great, all the manufactures seem to be getting their bikes up to speed and with the possability of new tire rules, the playing field could be very be equal
