και οι πρωτες δηλωσεις του champ...


Casey Stoner said: “I really don’t know what to say. We didn’t really expect to win the championship here.

“We thought we’d go out and give it a go and try to score some more points. But to come out and win the championship with still three rounds to go, it’s an absolute dream.

“Just to win the championship is a dream, but to win it with such a big advantage is incredible. I’ve got to thank everybody that’s worked so hard this year and through my entire career to get me to where I am.

“There’s been a lot of people in my life who helped get me here, a lot of people that believed in me(i mean the greek fans in moto.gr), and a lot of people that didn’t. It’s nice that I can give the people that believed in me a gift, which is this world championship. And to prove to the people that didn’t believe in me we can do it.

“It proves that if you never give up anything can happen. My parents have sacrificed so much for me to be here. I have to thank them probably the most for my whole career.

“My wife Adriana who’s been here the last few seasons has just been excellent and since we’ve been married she’s been here every race and supporting me, so I’ve always got somebody there for me. That’s been a lot easier this year.”

Stoner: we deserve more credit

Stoner believes he and his Ducati team should get more credit for the way they have dominated this year's championship, the Australian admitting he is tired of hearing about Bridgestone's superiority.

The 21-year-old finished sixth at last weekend's Japanese Grand Prix to secure his first MotoGP title with three races to spare.

The Australian also became his country's first champion since Mick Doohan won the 500cc crown in 1998.

Stoner and his Bridgestone-shod Ducati have won eight races as the Japanese tyre manufacturer seemed to have adapted better to this year's regulations. Stoner's main rival Valentino Rossi, riding a Yamaha with Michelin tyres, has won four races.

The new champion admitted he is tired of suggestions that Bridgestone should get most of the credit for his dominance, although he also praised the Japanese manufacturer for the job it has done this season.

"I'm really tired of listening to all this stuff about tyres," said Stoner. "We made a decision at Ducati to go with Bridgestone and they've done a fantastic job. There were also moments in Bridgestone's career in Grands Prix when they were not competitive.

"They've done a fantastic job to come up to this level and today again they got a one-two-three. Everything's working very well for us this year. If we go to the one tyre rule I hope we can go with Bridgestone, because they've done a fantastic job for us this year, we work very well with them and I'm very grateful to them.

"But like I've said before, if you do a one tyre rule then you may as well go into a one motorcycle rule and then you may as well run an R6 Cup. It's the same. This is a prototype championship and there should be prototype everything."

When asked if he should get more praise for his riding, Stoner added: "Sometimes maybe, but the team and the tyres need credit - not just to complain about the speed of the bike or the competition of the tyres. They need to be given a pat on the back for the job they've done.

"Sometimes maybe we also deserve a little more credit because we've been working really hard all my career to be in this position, and we've been working really hard this season.

"At a lot of races we were a lot faster than other riders because we were working a lot harder. We put in the effort and we got the rewards this year."

Stoner, a massive 83 points ahead of Rossi in the standings, believes next season will be harder, as he expects his rivals to raise their game.

"For sure everybody's going to get stronger," he added. "My competitors aren't too happy that I got the world championship and they'll be trying to chase us down next year. But we must try to win more races for next year, to improve the bike, and that's the main importance.

"We still must take it race by race, and if we're able to win the title next year then it's a dream come true and we can move on to the next one."

The Champ



He's Australia's new world champion, the fastest man on two wheels. Just a few hours ago, Casey Stoner took out the MotoGP crown in Japan. And he did it in style, knocking off the reigning champ, Italy's Valentino Rossi, the greatest rider of all time. Not bad going for a shy 21-year-old country kid who looks too young to drive. But Casey knows better than most in the ferocious world of motorbike racing, that world crown's a tough thing to hold onto. And, as Ben Fordham explains, he's already got another young Aussie hot on his tail. a bloke who's just as hungry to win.

Transcript


BEN FORDHAM: It's the moments before the Portuguese Moto Grand Prix, and in Casey Stoner's garage mechanics are fussing around his bike, making final adjustments. Casey is composed, quietly contemplating speeds of 300 km/h and more. Out of the pits, there's the anticipation of speed and noise. You're waiting on the grid, what are you thinking?

CASEY STONER: Just trying to think about the track, you know, you sort of do a lap of the track in your head, and just, uh, praying, you know, that everything's gonna go alright.

BEN FORDHAM: So you say a prayer?

CASEY STONER: Yep.

BEN FORDHAM: Is it to do with surviving or winning?

CASEY STONER: No, it's more to do with surviving, I think.

BEN FORDHAM: Casey Stoner is 21. His job is to ride his 800cc Ducati motorcycle as fast and as hard as possible, without falling off and crashing. And if this young Australian gets it right, as he has been all this season, he'll be a worldwide hero. This will give you a sense of just how fast these blokes are moving. Casey Stoner is just about to hit the final corner, down there, and enter the straight. Now that position is half a "k" away from where we are right here. Okay, here they come. Let's see how long it takes for them to reach us. Remember, half a "k"! How much do you love the speed?

CASEY STONER: You can go as fast as you want in a straight line, but it really doesn't give you a big kick. It's more going through the corners fast and, uh, and acceleration coming out of 'em.

BEN FORDHAM: And knowing when to slow down?

CASEY STONER: Yeah, basically that's a pretty important point.

BEN FORDHAM: Is Casey Stoner the best?

MICK DOOHAN: He is this year, that's without a doubt. You know, hopefully he'll continue along that path, but every time he's hopping on the bike he's gaining more confidence, and you see that he's just getting quicker and quicker.

CASEY STONER: When it's five times world motorcycle champion Mick Doohan saying nice things about Casey Stoner, take note.

MICK DOOHAN: Casey's very intense, you know, and that's what makes him what he is. He's very focused, he's sort of always looking for a better edge and, um, he's just got one thing on his mind, and that's racing.

BEN FORDHAM: But it's not just Casey's number 27 we should be cheering this season. '71' is another Australian whizzing by, 25-year-old Chris Vermeulen. It's a pretty glamorous lifestyle you lead. BEN FORDHAM: From the outside there's the money, fans.

CHRIS VERMEULEN: There's the women, you could say.

BEN FORDHAM: You said it.

BEN FORDHAM: Chris rides for Team Suzuki. What's the game plan?

CHRIS VERMEULEN: When in doubt, flat out.

BEN FORDHAM: And on his bike, you get a terrifying sense of what these guys do.

BEN FORDHAM: And is your chest down on here?

CHRIS VERMEULEN: My chest is down there and my chin is touching on here.

BEN FORDHAM: Your chin is touching that?

CHRIS VERMEULEN: Chin and helmet. And I look through this bit when I'm down the straight.

BEN FORDHAM: Mate, there's not a lot you can actually see out of there.

CHRIS VERMEULEN: Bugger all, really.

BEN FORDHAM: Can Chris go as far as Casey?

MICK DOOHAN: I think he can, you know. Casey has a little bit more experience than what Chris has, but every time he's out on the bike Chris is getting better and better and is a candidate for a world champion, without a doubt.

BEN FORDHAM: When it comes to motorcycle racing, Australia likes to do things in twos. Mick Doohan took on Wayne Gardner in the '80s and '90s. Now it's Casey Stoner up against Chris Vermeulen. Their rivalry's fierce, but friendly. Chris Vermeulen.

CASEY STONER: I really enjoy his company, especially when we're on the podium together. I'm happy for that, you know, that we can be countrymen and still get along very well.

BEN FORDHAM: So, are you looking forward to beating him?

CHRIS VERMEULEN: Bloody oath, that's the main thing. It doesn't matter who it is, if it's Casey or anyone, I want to cross that line first.

BEN FORDHAM: With the millions they've now earned, these two countrymen have both bought country properties to escape the mania of the racetrack. Chris is up on Queensland's Sunshine Coast, and Casey's out on the bike, rounding up the cattle outside Tamworth, New South Wales. Where are you most comfortable?

CASEY STONER: I'd say out on the farm. I don't have to sort of worry about the pressure and stress of the racing and I can sort of come out here and relax,

BEN FORDHAM: Casey's Dad, Colin, is also his manager. Mum, Bronwen, his biggest fan. When you look at him now, is he still just that little boy or … ?

BRONWEN STONER: Yeah, he hasn't changed, not a bit.

BEN FORDHAM: He's got a baby face.

BRONWEN STONER: He has.

BEN FORDHAM: Casey's wife, Adriana, is the new addition to the family. Not surprisingly, they met at the racetrack four years ago. I hear that someone signed someone's stomach. Can you please clear up this story for me?

ADRIANA STONER: He was, um ... I approached him before we started properly talking and asked him to sign my stomach. It was completely decent, it was just here, so yeah.

BEN FORDHAM: What did he write?

ADRIANA STONER: Oh, just his autograph.

BEN FORDHAM: First time you'd ever signed a piece of flesh?

[panayiotis]

CASEY STONER: Yep.

ADRIANA STONER: He was more than willing.

BEN FORDHAM: Lunch has hardly settled when Casey's back in the saddle — Team Stoner now includes a full-time trainer. To be the fastest, you've also got to be the fittest, and when you're only 59 kilograms handling a heavy-duty machine, Casey knows it takes plenty of muscle.

CASEY STONER: I think I've had 17, almost 18 years, of racing.

BEN FORDHAM: You've had 18 years of racing?

CASEY STONER: Mmhm.

BEN FORDHAM: Casey you're 21-years old. That doesn't sound funny to you?

CASEY STONER: Yeah, but, um, you know, I suppose I've been riding since I was three, racing since I was four.

BEN FORDHAM: Casey was a childhood champion — but growing up wasn't always easy for this skinny kid. So you had a bit of a rough time at school?

CASEY STONER: Yep.

BEN FORDHAM: With bullying?

CASEY STONER: Pretty much. I dunno why, but I didn't exactly have a heck of a lot of friends back in school, primary school days, and that. Um, dunno if it was jealousy or what.

BEN FORDHAM: It was Casey's parents who made the ultimate sacrifice. When he was 14, they bought a one-way ticket to Europe, a tiny caravan, and travelled track-to-track to take on the big league. The gamble worked. Has he ever questioned his own ability?

COLIN STONER: Never.

BEN FORDHAM: One hundred percent all the way?

COLIN STONER: One hundred percent all the way. He's always been like that. We started him on the roller-coaster to get there, and then we just got dragged the rest of the way.

BEN FORDHAM: Over at Chris Vermeulen's farm, he's showing off his latest toy — not as fast as his racing bike, but it's not bad. Like Casey, getting to the top meant leaving Australia and heading for Europe when he was a teenager. He still spends most of his year overseas, so getting home for a break is a bonus. Can I ask you a slightly personal question?

CHRIS VERMEULEN: Okay, sure.

BEN FORDHAM: How much do they pay you?

CHRIS VERMEULEN: It's never enough, you know, but we get good rewards out of it. You can see the cars and things like that but, ah, to be totally honest, I would do it for nothing. Both Chris and Casey are coy about what they earn, but if this bloke's anything to go by, then it's probably a fair whack. Do you have to be a bit crazy to do what you do?

VALENTINO ROSSI; Just a little bit, yes. A little bit, yes.

BEN FORDHAM: Valentino Rossi is the seven-times world champion, and he'll take home more than $30 million this year, even though he's been well and truly out-ridden by Casey Stoner. But Rossi is gracious in defeat.

VALENTINO ROSSI: He deserves it.

BEN FORDHAM: He deserves it.

VALENTINO ROSSI: Yes. He's pretty amazing at 21 years of age.

VALENTINO ROSSI: Yes.

BEN FORDHAM: What's you advice to him as world champion?

VALENTINO ROSSI: I remember when I was 21 years age, and I was already three times world champion so ...

BEN FORDHAM: You're doing alright, huh?

VALENTINO ROSSI: The advice is continue like this and I hope to fight with Casey stronger for the next year.

BEN FORDHAM: In this multimillion-dollar business, winning is vital. In Chris Vermeulen's pit, team engineer Tom O'Kane has a blank cheque to make this motorbike go faster and faster. This thing already goes 340km/h, what would it cost to get that lifted to 341km/h?

TOM O'KANE: About a million bucks.

BEN FORDHAM: A million dollars for one extra "k"?

TOM O'KANE: Yeah, and ask Chris and he'll tell you it's worth it. Every penny.

CHRIS VERMEULEN: Every single '"k", he's exactly right. If we can get one km/h or one horse power more out of the bike, it is crucial, and it can mean the difference between being on the podium or not, you know.

BEN FORDHAM: The bikes keep getting better and faster but for all the engineering and aggression, there's an undeniable poetry about this sport. That is, until they fall off.

CHRIS VERMEULEN: I've broken some bones in my hand, uh, a ligament off there, I wore away one of my toes earlier this year. It's grown back.

BEN FORDHAM: Grown back?

CHRIS VERMEULEN: I lost all of the nail and the end of the bone was completely gone off there. I lost a little bit off there and there.

CASEY STONER: You don't have time to think. As quick as it happens on TV is as quick as it happens in real life.

BEN FORDHAM: Staying on the bike has been Casey's crucial lesson.

CASEY STONER: You know, you're in the air, but you're not thinking. "This is going to hurt", or anything. You're just trying to put yourself and your body in the right position. Last year, he crashed more than anyone else. This year, he stayed upright and became the world-beater. Casey Stoner's going alright, mate.

CASEY STONER: I'm having a very good season at the moment.

BEN FORDHAM: The difference between a winner and a loser can be hundredths of a second, and no-one wants to be a loser. That means Casey, the champion, is now a marked man.

CHRIS VERMEULEN: I'm not gonna help him and say, "Oh Casey, here you go, you can pass me so you can win the world title", or anything like that. I'm going out there to beat him.

BEN FORDHAM: He's just another guy you want behind you?

CHRIS VERMEULEN: He's just another guy I want behind me.

CASEY STONER: You know, a lot of people always say you can't do this, you can't do that. I think it shows that if you keep fighting and if you keep dreaming and it can happen.
