Today's bombshell: Casey Stoner, two times MotoGP world champion, the only man to win multiple races and the championship with the Ducati, has announced he will retire at the old age of 26. After his second season with Repsol Honda, the team he's won his second championship with last year, he's calling it a day.

On the one hand I'm sad to see the racer in him gone, especially as I'd have loved to see what'd happen if Lorenzo started troubling him. But on the other hand, I've never liked Casey as a person in the paddock, so I'm looking forward to other riders taking the reigns of what's now his Honda.

Crazy though, for him to retire already!
