Stoner continued, “The RPM was going up to the limiter and there was no forward momentum. I just tried adjusting it and I managed to get it hooked up again, but it was still difficult on the corners.”
This shows what riders have to go through on the track while racing. In the last race Stoner's steering damper was malfunctioning and he had to fix it himself which is why we once saw Stoner slowing down while crossing the finish line in one of the laps. But, then he went on to get some points.

So many things go behind what we actually see. Incredible machines, incredible riders, awesome.
