• Organising 1 MotoGP race: $millions
• Having Rossi announce he will be racing: $250 million in extra ticket sales
• Playing the wrong national anthem for the winner: Priceless

Gotta love the Americans – when Jorge Lorenzo won the MotoGP race at Laguna Seca, he was taken by surprise when the Italian national anthem was played as he stood on the top step of the podium awaiting his moment of glory. Meanwhile, Valentino Rossi who stood on the third step gets a fit of the giggles.

Also love the fact that Lorenzo looks across at Rossi as the Italian national anthem begins playing as if to accuse him of being involved somehow.

Check out the video below of the ‘national anthem podium mix-up’ at Laguna Seca.
