Now you are being very mysterious!!!

About him being cold - isn't it sweet the way he is showing how cold he is at the end. He definitely needs a big hug to warm him up there!

from moto gp com:

At a time when European followers of the MotoGP World Championship were most likely tucked up in bed, Valentino Rossi was sending a wake-up call to his title rivals....

and:
The big news from the session was a crash from Fiat Yamaha´s series leader Jorge Lorenzo. The Spaniard suffered a dramatic highside late in the runout –his first since his maiden victory and subsequent arm surgery- and was rushed to the Clinica Mobile. He played no further part in the session.

hope he is fine!
