"Edwards, Rossi - naked?"

A new Indy tradition to start on Sunday?

Colin Edwards said that "naked and run across the front line" if he wins the inaugural Grand Prix in Indianapolis on Sunday - and Valentino Rossi can do the same!

During the Thursday before the press conference event, the racers were asked if plans to initiate any new MotoGP race Indy winner of the traditions of this weekend. The winner of the Indy 500 traditionally rises fencing off land, while the winner of Nascar Indy kissing the yard of bricks.

"Just get naked and running down the front straight," suggested Edwards, who is still chasing his first Grand Prix victory. "Start here. (Laughter) I do. (Laughter)."

The world championship leader Rossi, who has won the last three MotoGP races and set a new all time record 500cc/MotoGP if he takes his 69th victory on Sunday, was asked for his opinion:

"I agree with Colin. (Laughter). Nude."
