This is probably the most common (and easiest to avoid) tactic used during qualifying. Miguel does it, Bostrum does it, Mladin does it, Nicky did it, Mick did it, Kevin did it and I can't think of anyone in recent history that sees poll time on their board and doesn't 'cruise around' hoping to keep anyone else from beating it. Hell I even did it long ago and far away . . .
BTW, w/o taking anything away from Rossi, I think Max doesn't live in anyone's shadow but his own . . .
