gonna make an educated guess and say that when casey is referring to the 'hard passes' valentino made on him in 2006 in practise and in races, at least one of those was this one from donington. almost runs into the back of him and then - hard to tell from the camera work, but it certainly looks like valentino runs him pretty wide lol. look at how close they get

dead eyed wave to the camera. "most people would be happy with fourth but we know he won't be". morose child

#always important to remember that the rivalry didn't start at qatar 2007. they have a few in-race scraps in 2006 #we were so close to the first dani/vale/casey podium there :(#wondering whether casey could've had a problem with the shanghai pass. i mean it's a bit block-y but also harmless surely #//#brr brr #heretic tag #btw lads if you're looking to compare an alien rookie season to pedro. casey is probably your guy. don't get why more aren't doing that #satellite machinery that is decent but not great. clearly some brilliant pace but attempting to override and crashing a fair bit #i get why marc is the obvious go-to for brilliant rookie seasons but casey is at least as talented so should be a perfectly good benchmark
