Lorenzo after winning the championship (MotoGP)?

Was it just me, and Lorenzo caught up in the moment

Or did he snub Ben on the slow down lap.

It looked to me like Ben tried a couple of times to congratulate him and then gave up shaking his head.

Is Lorenzo trying Rossi's mind games with Ben already.

It could easily be just emotions running high after winning the championship, But somehow I doubt it.

any opinions ?

Update:

@Cadalora, he was probably talking about 4th in the championsip.

@Wiggysan, thanks for the tweet info from Jorge. Im not sure I believe him.

    I think he was just caught in the moment.

    There was a 'man hug' in Parc Ferme with Vale, so Im sure he and Ben did the same.

    Lorenzo seems very single minded on the track, so maybe it wasn't intentional. This was his first championship win so it must have meant a lot to him. I do hope he spoke to Ben afterwards though, to smooth things over.

    [ he could have been caught up with the fans around him, but what's interesting to me is that Lin Jarvis in an interview with Spanish television said that Pedrosa was the biggest threat to Jorge in 2011, making no mention of Rossi, and Stoner.. and more importantly no mention of his other rider Ben..Lorenzo could be making the point that he is number one rider...o#o..
