RE. [Ducati] nice stoner article on crash.net

[Peter Bonner]

Good find there Fred,

and while it mentions that Colin has been back in OZ while Casey has been
with Capirossi and Ducati, it seems that Casey's original mentor was the
same that Pedrosa still has. See quote from the article below

>From Crashnet article
"Then, when they (Colin and Casey) realised that Spain was the crucible of
tomorrow's grand prix riders, they rented a very average 125cc Honda for the
last two races there in 2000, caught the attention of racing mentor Alberto
Puig, and Casey was on his way"

Even Rainey used to get mentoring from Keith Code, among other racers. Most
good racers do get some sort of guidance.

Casey's dad, Colin, talks about his son's apprenticeship on the dirt, how
they financed his start and the role Capirossi's played in his rise to the
top......(ok....totally kidding on the last one! =)
