Stoner retiring
« on: May 17, 2012, 03:27:20 PM »
The pilgrimage to Phillip Island just won't be the same. :( :(
But good luck to him, I guess having a kid has changed his outlook somewhat...just hope he doesn't bag the sport, but there is an underlying criticism of it....

Good for Stoner,
He is 26 and already has nothing left to prove, plus being a millionaire at that age doesn't hurt.   :D
If he wins the championship (a certain possibility) he will retire in the pinnacle of his career and totally healthy! 8)
In a way he is a lot like Kimi Raikonnen, he loves to race but hates all the PR and politics involved in racing.

Yeah, kind of a letdown for me too, I thought maybe Chong was retiring.
