Casey Stoner: “Some riders wouldn’t get same results without traction control”
🌼Casey Stoner says some Mo⛄toGP riders are “are often faster than they should be"

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Casey Stoner claims that some front-running MotoGP riders woul🥂dn’t ach🦋ieve the same good results without the help of traction control.
Stoner is a vocal critic of🌌 the technology in today’s MotoGP.
Traction control - which has improved safety and reduced highsides by limiting wheelies - is also responsible for improving the performance of some riders, accorꦛding to St♔oner.
He was asked by if the bike is now important than the rider, and he replied: ⛦"I think s𝔉o and I don't agree with this progression.
“Some riders are much better at exꦑiting corners and having more control during acceleration, like Dani💜 Pedrosa.
“The qualities needed to demonstrate superior, quality r🐬iding 🐻no longer exist.
“The only way you can make a difference is to brake later to e༺nter the corner.
“For example, in 2011 Dani Pedrosa was almost two tenths fast💜er than me on the same bi🥂ke.
“He did something incredible with the rear brake to sto🧜p whee🐻lies and gain a lot of distance.
“There was no difference, ♒he was simply be😼tter than me.
“Now the rider’s control elements such as traction, tyre management and wheelie risk are masked by elect💎ronics."
Could back-ꦅto-back premier class champion Francesco Bagnaia be as dominant without the help of electronics?
Stoner said: "Peccoౠ races on dirt tracks, which is why he knows how to manage sliding and spinning.
“These are just some of the many riding elements that disapp♎🐻ear behind the help of extra components.
“✱In my opinion Marco Bezzecchi, for example, would probably be more competitive.
“There are some꧑ riders who run at the front who I don't think would get the same results if traction control were removed…
“They are often faster than they should be."
Stoner believes the technology is al🅠so having an impact off-track.
Commenting on his former team Honda, he said: "Alberto Puig isn't working badly in my opinion, but the circumstances have put Honda in diffi♔culty.
“I also understand their position: at the mo🔜ment the championship doesn't seem to have rigid regulations, the rules can be adapted and changed depending on the preferences of the manufacturers.
“Why should Honda commit to the development of a motorcycle when the rules change agꦫain and again to make them adapt to someone else?
“There is too much movement behind the scenes."
Stoner is a two-time MotoGP champion who won his 🀅titles wi꧒th Ducati and Honda.
It took Ducati 15 years after Stoner’s 2007 success to win again, via B🤪agnaia in 2022.
Stoner has part-blamed the increasing amount of techn𒀰ology for his retirement at the age of just 27.
“I loved riding bikes t🥃he most, I loved eking everything that I could out of a bike. I was very self-critical,” he🔯 has previously said.
“When these bikes became too much electronics, too much wheelie-control, the en🔴joyment disappeared.
“The series became political.”
