Sounds like it haha I'm not sure if the plan is to rape it round or not, think it could just be a fastish lap for ****s and giggles and the audience to see him. I'm looking forward to see how he copes with the bumpy roads, big curbs, white lines, things he doesnt think about on short circuit races! I am a fan of him, he's unbelievable, but I honestly think road racing is another world

I watched a vid on youtube which was on board with Guy Martin from last years when he did the fastest average speed. I was stunned at how bumpy it looked, Rossi has the craft obviously he's a geniues at riding the way he steps teh back wheel out so comfortably speaks endlessly for his control and understanding of how the bike performs. But as you say white lines, bumps, kerbs, high bankings on the inside of turns, walls on the outside...

I'd be most interested to see what he has to say afterwards. He's got to have been out and done some sneaky runs without his signature gear on to just blend in and get a feel for it. either that or he's been getting some major playstation in lol.
