the great overtakes

[Gibbsy]

One driver, their top 5 overtakes, video link (if possible) and explanation.

Mark Webber.

5. Victim: Jarno Trulli 2004. Mark comes from miles back here in a great display of opportunism. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ohcj38MZiQ

4. Victim: Ralph Schumacher Melbourne 2006. Mark took Ralf around the outside going into one of Albert Parks many tight turns. Margin for error on the move was none and a certain amount of cooperation was needed from Ralf, but it was still a beautiful pass. Cant find a link unfortunately.

3. Victim:Nick Heidfeld and ralf Schumacher @Sepang 05. More a scrap than an overtaking move, Webber shows off some brilliant defensive skills here. Heidfeld definitely should have had Webbers position at one point, but he lacked the racecraft. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMMUOgxMjk8

2. Victim: Fernando Alonso @ Monaco 05. Ragged move by Mark, but still clever and appropriately desperate considering what had happened so far in that race. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P05Ehhev6PM

1. Victim: Kimi raikonnen @ Imola 06. One of the most underrated moves of the last few years. Kimi makes the slightest mistake in by missing an apex by about a foot, this is all Webbo needs to pounce, getting a better run out of the corner, coming within a few inches of Kimis left front and then powering past. Impressively it was the only on track overtaking move of that race. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLADmmRwzjc

Have fun. I think the most challenging driver to do this for will be Massa. He never overtakes anyone does he?

He did...or at least he tried.

Bahrein 2006, he was overtaking Alonso at first corner while drifting, but it just lasted one second.

I'm not sure if linking a video is allowed again on this forum, but this manouver is really easy to get.

[Shifter]

Video links here are verboten because in the past the FIA have been headhunting on copyrights but lately that doesn't seem to be the case as F1 footage doesn't get deleted off of youtube.

I have to get back to work so all five will come later but do a search for Piquet overtaking Senna, Hungary 1986.

Let's see:

A bit forced one on DC:

And in all cases but one he was driving Saubers!

There must be some more (like when he came from last to 5th last season at Sepang) but I have no time to search for all of them. Anyway he clearly isn't afraid of making the move on whoever gets in his way.

Victim : Ralf and Kimi
Race: Canadian GP 2002
Montoya comes from behind Ralf and Kimi going into a straightaway then swerves to the far left forming a 3 car racing line going into the next turn. Ralf gets absorbed in the middle, then Montoya and Kimi run side by side and finally Kimi yields.

one of my favorites has to be hiedfeld on DC at Bahrain, when he goes into deep at turn 1 and DC tries to get back fround him but then Hiedfeld drives him off the track - Classic. has anyone got clips of that??
