Stoner concern at wrist problem

Ducati rider Casey Stoner has revealed he is growing ever more concerned by his troublesome wrist problem with the start of the new FIM MotoGP World Championship campaign just two months away.

The Australian struggled with the injury for much of last season as he finished as runner-up to Valentino Rossi in the championship, and underwent surgery in October.

However, with time running out before the first race of the 2009 season at Losail on April 12, Stoner admits he is increasingly anxious about the slow progress he has made since going under the knife.
