Forget the force Colin ... use the power modes

Film-star and biker Ewan McGregor was spotted around the MotoGP paddock at Silverstone on Sunday.

The bike nut, who went around the world on an R1150GS Adventure, was on the grid chatting to riders before the race. Presumably he was there to pass on some Jedi-skills to some of the riders. We reckon Colin Edwards got his fair share but Ewan had clearly run out of spare Jedi by the time he met Jorge Lorenzo. Either that or it doesn't work on aliens...
