You have misread that. The fastest way would be to avoid all the corners, take a left at the start line, and just keep going left till you're over the start line. That would be a dramatically larger amount of cheating, but they're both cutting corners, and both cheating. He got away with it because he's Valentino Rossi... but I would have thought that if you took a place by cutting a corner, you would be required to cede that place and have to retake it.
