I think the reason Casey Stone decided to quit is because of the speed of the 1000 cc bikes in combination with the slow CRT bikes on the track. Now as you all know, I'm no Stoner fan but I think he has a point. There is a lot of congestion out there because of the slower bikes and I hear that it's only a matter of time before something really unfortunate happens during qualifying especially. I am all for more bikes on the grid but if we are going to have superbikes racing out there with prototypes what's the point?
There is a rumor that BMW and Suzuki will be back to MotoGP in 2014 and even Kawasaki might come back. Maybe they need to just wait it out and not try to run an endurance style race with machines of all different levels trying to share a track. That's super dangerous with motorcycles.
