I think 2005 130R is the best

Big Call. Anyway This is just a G-Up to all the senna fans.

I have absolute respect for Nigel, but this was just being lucky - like Irvine's unlapping against Senna at Suzuka. I have seen many better and more deserved overtakes by Mansell. My way, there would be no laapping in F1. They'd simply have to leave the race after being close to be lapped. In no sport should the worst affect the results of the best like this!!! Also, forcing lapped cars out of the race would increase the pressure on them to stay in the same lap as the race leader. GOOD!

So he used a slow car to overtake? is that the best overtake ever?,, I've seen better overtakes in this F1 2011 year.. webber vs alonso eau rouge

@RoLLWithITOasis1 that was a great pass I remember that on
-
driving round the outside of someone on a straight is only a good pass in 2011...
-
Nope - more luck than skill

The best pass ever is between Mansell v Piquet silverstone 1987 or Mansell v Senna & Berger first 2 corners at Estoril 1991.

Hakkinen, Belgium 2000 on Schumacher. That's my personal favourite =)

@TimBrewin - totally agree with you on that .. That was the best overtake not only because it was an amazing pass move... but also it took place over the best car in 91 (Mclaren 1991) which was being driving by the the top 5 best driver in F1 history (Ayrton Senna)..... That was a really special moment...
@TheKartist I absolutely agree with that, Mansell's pass round the outside of Berger in Mexico in that high speed corner was his best ever.
I was lucky enough to watch that race and it was a memorable moment.
This pass here is just a question of being at exactly the right spot and having good reflexes.
Mansell was never the complete package and he suffered from brainfade pretty often but his shortcomings are what made him such an exciting driver as well.
The exact opposite of Prost or Piquet.

It looks like a good pass if you're high
