I just finished all 5 seasons of F1 on Netflix, and your video explains overtaking better than Netflix all 5 seasons combined.

Danny Ric used to be considered the best overtaker of recent seasons. He could work out a faster line against a driver who was taking a slower defensive line and simply drive around him.
In the Mansell/Senna/Prost era we saw cars following very closely through corners and this made overtaking a lot easier. But Our Nige won his world title in a year when Williams had lost its dominant edge.

What F1 should do about their passing rules.
1 - The car that is not ahead is deemed to alongside once the front wheel makes it past the rear wheel of the lead car.
The leading car going into a corner must give a car width from the end point of the corner, or is considered at fault. The width applies to both the inside and outside of an apex, meaning once the rear car is ahead of the front cars rear wheel, the rear car also must apply to the same width when driving off the apex out of the corner.
Once the car that is not ahead is in this position, the lead car must not take that width away until safety past the car in back.
2. The car in the rear must be ahead prior to the apex in order for that vehicle to now be able to switch as the lead car.
Same rules as above now apply with apex car widths.
If the car in the rear does not get past prior to the apex, then rule 1 still applies to them and they are the lead car only needs to give a car width.
This way, if you want to make a dive on the inside, you better know you will have to lead as well as be able to be at a slow enough speed as to not push the other off the track.
Same with overtaking vehicles making dangerous maneuvers.
Have all these be penalties and drivers will be much safer.

I’m like 80% sure you plagiarize a decent amount of this

[@skii_mask_]

that's a weird accusation considering this is just about explaining the rules. who do you think it's plagiarized from?
