I am going to make it through this year if it kills me
Yep, love him or hate him Stoner was a great.

The comparison to Rosberg being made was Stoner retired at the top to spend time with his young family having gotten disillusioned with the sport.
Yeah. Simoncelli's death also contributed. I'm sure many riders had second thoughts after that.

Still the worst thing I witness in motorsports.

I refused to watch that race after I heard of Marco's death, eventhough I had recorded it on my DVR to watch later (the same with Tomizawa earlier in the year).

The only death I had the misfortune to witness live was Senna's.
 

nekkid

It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is our plan.
I just realised: Rosberg told Mercedes he was going to quit, then suddenly Hamilton was "ill" during the tyre test and needed to hand over the car to Wehrlein...
