Why are Aussis best on Ducati?

Question

Casey Stoner is the best and only good Ducati rider in Moto GP.

Troy Bayliss is the best with Ducati in WSBK, i kno Xaus and Biaggi got a 1-2 last weekend but overall Bayliss is the best.

I kno they used to ride dirtbikes alot but almost every rider has a dirtbike or supermoto past. So whats theyre secret?

Answer 1

I take it you have never heard of Carl Fogarty ?

The most successful WSB rider in history. He did all his WSB carer on Ducati's except 1 year on  on the RC45.

Answer 2

Aussies are naturally awesome at most things!!

Answer 3

While I think Casey is exceptional. I reserve the right to judge the ducati in wsbk I'm still not sure the 1200cc thing is fair. as for Aussies being better at riding the Ducati. we have not seen the big guns like Rossi trying to ride one. Or Pedrossa. I think Nicky could ride one. this is on the assumption he likes to Rev the bike and rides a lot of rear brake into the corners. something Casey also does. Troy Bayliss would stand out on any bike.  and as a foot note the Aussies are quite quick on Suzuki's (Matt Mladin) and Yamaha's (Troy Corser)

and although a lot of top riders did MX or SM not all were very good at it the way Troy Bayliss Casey Stoner and Nicky Hayden(USA) were.

Answer 4

Good question! I don't think its down to their Nationality - I think it's because they are both very happy on active bikes and don't need a smooth ride to go fast. What was it that they said on commentary this weekend? "Stoner rides like a man with a chainsaw down his trousers". Ho ho! So true!

Answer 5

loock my nickname!!

rossi is the best!
