Is Casey Stoner going to miss the Brno GP? This hot piece of “news” is running in Spanish websites and according to several others, Stoner may also decide to miss the Indianapolis GP, but all this yet to be officially announced by Ducati and Stoner himself.
The former 2007 World Champion was diagnosed by Dr.
Art Ting in California with slight gastritis and mild anemia after stomach problems and exhaustion hindered his performances in the last five GP races.
Stoner going against Ducati’s official press release denied that this diagnosis was the root of his physical problems, leaving fans even more bewildered and after the Donington GP fiasco announced that he would be returning to Australia to consult with Dr.
Neil Halpin, a renowned sports physician that has helped him in the past.
Apparently MotoGP’s brief summer hiatus has not solved Stoner’s problems and many are now saying that the Aussie’s problems are no longer physical, but solely psychological and starting to compare Stoner to Manuel Poggiali.
