Totally agree.

He's riding well, he's winning races, I think Casey has an in built lack of self confidence, its like he wins but its not enough, perhaps he is seeking Rossi levels of adulation to make himself feel better about himself in some way. Who knows whats going on inside his head.

He's a demon rider on the top of his game
His Mrs is gorgeous
He's minted

and he's pulls f*cking fantastic wheelies like the one he did at Donny on Sunday.

The only way some fans are going to cheer him is if he, rides a Yamaha, runs No 46 on his fairing and changes his nationality to Italian.

I like him, he says what he thinks and he gets on with the job, if that means throwing a strop now and again fair play to him.

Its a very small minority that give him greif he needs to get over it.

I did notice this year that number of Rossi workshipers had deminished and at no time over the weekend hear anybody boo Casey, everybody I was sat near were very knowledgable about racing in general and very appreciative of his talent.
