sucks for stoner, he really has been way off this year. hopefully he can come back stronger. He's too young to have all these lasting injuries. Its definitely a good call to take a break for a while.

Kallio should do fairly well, it will be really interesting to see how he stacks up to Hayden on the factory machine. This could be bad new for Hayden, anyone know if he already has a contract to stay with Ducati next year?
