Local Hero Stoner Returns Home

08 October 2007

The new MotoGP World Champion Casey Stoner returns home to a hero’s welcome when he makes his one and only appearance in Australia at the GMC Australian Grand Prix at Phillip Island on Sunday. Twenty one year-old Stoner clinched the title at the previous round in Japan. Since that moment the sports mad Australian public have doubled the sales of grand prix tickets from last year at the magnificent venue. Riding the GP7 Marlboro Ducati, Stoner has dominated the Championship, winning eight grands prix but he’s never won a Championship race at the 2.763 miles Phillip Island. Victory in the 26-lap race would really be the icing on the cake in a truly remarkable season for the Australian and his Italian team.
