Earlier in the race though, he found himself not out front, and needed to work his way back. One of the cars he needed to pass was Jay Esterer in the awesome, but slippery, Chinook. Thus we were treated to this wonderful duel between two drivers in ridiculously fast cars dancing on the edge of adhesion. It’s a wonderful demonstration of fair but firm motorsport.
