Riding a lap of the famous TT Mountain course was an 'amazing experience', according to M💧otoGPಞ star Jorge Lorenzo.

The Spanish racer had his first taste of the 37.73-mile circuit ah♈ead of the final race of theಌ 2010 Isle of Man TT, riding a specially liveried Yamaha alongside fellow Spanish GP great Angel Nieto, the 13-times World Champion.

Reflecting on the experience, which his Fiat Yamaha teammate Valentin💮o Rossi alsꦡo had last year, Lorenzo said:

"What an amazing experience. Now I un♌derstand why people enjoy the experience of riding at the TT."

"I only did one lap and I would definitely like some more practice. I was able to make a few whe🎀elies and wave a lot to the crowd - ther🔴e seem to be so many people here. It was a very, very good experience."

After his lap, Lorenzo watched the Dainese Senior TT from a private ga🔴rden at the bottom of Bray Hill. He admitted he was stunned by the racing, but also saddened by the crash involving Guy Martin, a fellow Dainese ambassador, on lap 🌱three.

Martin was airlifted to hospital with relatively minor injuries given the speed of the crash at Ballagarey. The race wa♈s red flagged after the incident ♊and reduced from six to four laps when it was restarted.

Lorenzo said:

"I have read all about the TT in magazine and have seen TV programmes - but nothing can prepare you for the real experienceꦉ."

Nieto, who competed a𝐆t the TT in 1968, was ꦑalso thrilled by his experience at the 2010 TT.

He said:

"It was a great honour to come back to such a great and historic place as a guest of Dainese. I have str൲ong memories from my time here a long time ag𓄧o and it is great to come back and see the TT so healthy."

"We were all so concerned for Guy - it is a miracle that we here good news. It was great to show Jorge ꧅the TT and I'm glad he enjoyed so much. For us both it was a very special experience."
