Our Top 20 overtakes continues and today we have this insane move by Vitor Meira at the 2008 Indianapolis 500. Off a restart, Meira was in third place but caught a slipstream to reel in Scott Dixon and Ed Carpenter. On the straight Meira appears to be boxed in, but he forces the question on his opponent: either lose your position or we're going to have a big crash. You can see just how tiny the gap was from the onboard video.

It's... it's great to see all this Indy Car love. This year, in particular, since the re-merger with Champ Car, the racing has been spectacular. I'm really happy to see the good ol' boys...
I for one would love to see F1 drivers in an oval track again, and some Indy at F1 tracks
yet another indy 'top overtake'!!!
im sure there other forms top overtakes from other motorsports...
I can't even imagine the nerves that took! nice overtake for sure!

Ovals are boring as hell.
might take just as much skill to drive on one but its just boring to watch.
