Matt Robert's BBC collumn...


Of course the box office attraction at any MotoGP race right now is Valentino Rossi and the Italian is happy to dictate the script, even when part of an all-star cast including fellow legends Wayne Rainey, Eddie Lawson and Kenny Roberts Sr.

Valentino Rossi
One of the most familiar sights in racing - Rossi's back wheel

The world champions were all on track on Thursday for a SuperKart 'exhibition' in which things inevitably got competitive, with Rossi coming out on top in a one-lap sprint, with 'Grand Marshal' Colin Edwards waving the chequered flag.

"We had a plan, and it didn't quite work," laughed Rainey, who regularly races the karts that lap around Laguna at a similar pace to the MotoGP bikes. "We were all going to stay together, but suddenly we looked round and said 'where did Valentino go?'"
