Casey Stoner reveals lowest point of illness - and hope for new role in racing
Case♏y Ston♎er's update on his health and plan for the future

Casey Stoner intends to leave illness problems in the past and find a new role helping aspiring rid🐽ers.
Chrꦅon🐓ic fatigue syndrome plagued Stoner towards the end of his MotoGP career, and remains a problem to this day.
Two-time champion Stoner retired from MotoGP in 2012, aged juꦦst 27, and has kept a low profile ever since.
“I am stiꦚll trying to get over chron🐬ic fatigue syndrome,” he told the Ducati Diaries podcast.
“It has been better over the past c🍒ouple of years.
“But I still have had a lot of u𒅌ps and downs, long periods where I’ve been just sat on the cou🐼ch.
“I’d really like to finish that.
“Th🥃at’s🐷 why I separated myself, pretty much entirely, from the world of MotoGP and sport in general.
“It was too hard to watch, because I wasn’t able to get out t🌱here and do anything.
“A lot of depression would kick in over that. “So ♊I separated m🐭yself from the industry.”
What next for Casey Stoner?
Stoner worked as a commentator and broadcaster for TNT Sports a꧅t the Phillip Island MotoGP round this year.
But he envisages a different role in the future.
“I am slowly gettin🐬g more interested ༺in it again, now that I have more energy to give,” Stoner said.
“I can see what’s going on more.
“I’d still like to work with🐭 some - not necessarily going through the whole selection process of riders - but ༺selecting a couple of riders.
“I have a lot to give, I ♐have a very different perspective to a lot of other people.
“I feel like there are ce꧟rtain things in MotoGP that I did better than others.
“T𝐆here are things that I know I didn’t do well ♛enough.
“But certain things where I’ve learn♋ed a lot, and things that I’ve never given out to anybody.
“So I wouldn’t mind having the opportunity to work with the right people to༒ utilise all those years of experience, and put it into someone else who is des🐼erving of it, to help them achieve goals.”
