Let me know if you use any of these in your real or sim racing!

Formula 1 drivers are the most skilled OVERTAKERS in the world - in a sport where ‘SENDING IT’ means out braking another car from 180 mph, down to under 60mph in around 80 metres, pulling up to 6G, and placing your car PERFECTLY to get past.

So, what SPECIFIC techniques do they use to overtake? And what do you do if the driver in front is defending as HARD as they can? Well, I’m going to break down EVERY overtaking technique these guys have in their locker.

First, there are a load of ways to overtake in Formula 1 - but we’re going to focus on wheel-to-wheel battling. You don’t need me to explain a DRS move on the straight, or an undercut in the pits (we like the exciting overtakes).

Now, overtaking in a corner - is simply carrying more speed INTO, THROUGH a corner or (most of the time) carrying more speed OUT of a corner.
