So, Kimi's pass on Shoe-Maker made me wince, as did Webbers same move on Alonso last year.

As a distraction from the Hamilton / Grosjean bhing going on (Heat Magazine this ain't) what's your favourite 'I don't believe he just did that' overtakes?

Extra points for YouTube links.

Rossi on Lorenzo, Catalunya

The entire last few laps are mesmerising but that last corner overtake just cannot be done.

Shows how much I know about bikes as it looks a fairly easy pass to me as Lorenzo leaves a wide open gap

Sato's pre-crashing into Dario pass on Scott Dixon at the Indy 500 was pretty special :-

The Hakkinen, Schumacher, Zonta pass in Spa way back in 2000. Epic Mikka Maximum Attack.

Villeneuve went around the outside of Schumacher somewhere. That was a ballsy move.

Anyone got a link to the lap Schumacher does in spa where he passes loads of people, I can't seem to find it.

Vettel on Alonso at Monza in 2011 - 2 wheels on the grass round the Curva Grande. From a driver who, at the time, many on here thought couldn't 'race'.

Anyone interested should check out many clips of Hamilton in GP2 2006. Some absolutely world-class overtakes by him that year.

yes

Happened to be in the BRDC at the time and the cheer that went up was only drowned out by a rather well known ex F1 driver exclaiming "fk me that lad's good!"
