2012MotoGP第4戦フランスGP：ストーナー引退発表！
2012MotoGP第4戦フランスGPプレスカンファレンスで、
ストーナーが今季限りで引退を発表！
前からロッシ、ストーナーの引退の噂がたっていましたが、
ロッシは引退を否定、ストーナーは発表しちゃいました。
現役チャンピオンの引退発表ということもあり、ちょっとショックですね。
After so many years of doing this sport which I love, and which myself and my family made so many sacrifices for, after so many years of trying to get to where we have gotten to at this point, this sport has changed a lot and it has changed to the point where I am not enjoying it. I don’t have the passion for it and so at this time it’s better if I retire now.
There are a lot of things that have disappointed me, and also a lot of things I have loved about this sport, but unfortunately the balance has gone in the wrong direction. And so, basically, we won’t be continuing any more. It would be nice if I could say I would stay one more year, but then where does it stop? So we decided to finish everything as we are now.
こちらには、もう少し詳細な説明がありますね。
