Close passes are one thing. Threading your wheel in between the two wheels of another Formula One race car next to you resides on a whole different plane of ridiculousness. Here’s the most beastly overtake of this year’s Canadian Grand Prix, courtesy of Felipe Massa as he goes around Marcus Ericsson.

No crashes. No taps. (Although as , there may have been the faintest rub.) There’s just enough room for the two cars to maintain their distance, and almost nothing more.

Not only is this a pass you won’t see outside of open-wheel racing (for obvious, physically impossible reasons), but it actually does prove that Formula One still has some of the best racers on the planet after all.
