Stoner: `The wobbles have gone`.
By Mike Nicks
It's nearly impossible to imagine Casey Stoner riding a bike where he isn't pushing it onto the realm o🌟f wobbles and weaves: the reigning MotoGP world champion is that kind of full-on rider who keeps the throttle wound.
But at Dܫonington we may see Stoner on a Marlboro Ducati GP8 that doesn't shake him around.
"At the Barcelona tests we found a big, big improvement to the engine management system to calm the bike down a bit and make it much easier to ride," he said. "The shaking and wobbling everywhere - it's sorted th𒀰at."

So take a look at Donington to see if the other Marlboro Du🐻cati rider Marco Melandri looks more confident on a tamed-𒈔down V4 this weekend.
As for Caཧsey, my bet is that⛄ he'll force on through the GP8's new calm zone and discover the next wobble level.
Peter has been in the paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront of the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s injuꦿry issues.
