I don't think he'll ever return to GP. Unfortunately.

Stuck throttle he says. Broken scapula and tibia. Scary crash.

Suzuka 8 hours 2015 Start race and Casey Stoner crash (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s51TBrRkLi0&app=desktop#)

Damn... that's the kind of thing that's going to be hard to explain to the wife when he tells her about wanting to race again.

He's lucky. That was a nasty looking crash.

Didn't mention it before but damn... I really wanted him to win this one and get the itch to race again.  But seeing what happened to Spies after a broken shoulder makes me really think he's out for good now.

Sucks that it had to happen due to a problem with the bike

Different issue - rotator cuff (Spies) vs Scapula (Stoner and pretty much every other moto racer). Sucks for sure though. I didn't think he'd ever come back anyway, but this seals the deal.

Ah, good to know that it's not the same kind of damage.  Reading those articles articles about the issues Spies had over this recovery made me think that just general shoulder damage like that could cause the same issues.

Casey can try the Tour de France next year; no one ever gets hurt in that race... [evil]
