Michelin - A Fond Farewell
27 October 2008
The spirit of competition has always been at the heart of Michelin. Racing has been a part of the company history and the company has been a part of racing history.

After 36 years of MotoGP Wor ld Championship racing, Michelin would like to thank all the teams and pilots who put their trust in the Group during this period.

Victorious Stoner Homecoming Puts Ducati On Cloud Nine
14 October 2007
A triumphant homecoming for Casey Stoner at Phillip Island, at the head of a Ducati one-two with Loris Capirossi, gave the Italian factory the Constructors and Teams World Championship in perfect fashion at the GMC Australian Grand Prix. In his first race since clinching the riders World Championship at Motegi from outside the podium spots, Stoner was able to start the celebrations in earnest with victory number nine of his flawless 2007 season. The Australian joins the likes of Mick Doohan and Wayne Gardner in winning his home race after taking the premier class title, and did so by storming away from the pack right from the off. Given some early trouble by World Championship predecessor Nicky Hayden, once the American had been eliminated from the equation with a mechanical problem, Stoner could go about his business without needing to look over his shoulder too frequently. He eventually took victory by nearly seven seconds.
