Einstein would have been proud of this last lap overtake at Laguna Seca, lo those many years ago, CART 1996.

That was the greatest treat of the whole damned F1 season! Fantastic drive. And here's why.

Everyone was racing around on the same line, doing the same thing, and getting nowhere. Einstein said, paraphrasing, that insanity is defined by doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results! Max totally crushed that paradigm! Was it his recent experience in karting, or knowledge that a rubbered-in track is slicker in the rain, or perhaps just boyish enthusiasm? Probably all of the above. Point is, Einstein would have been proud! I was just laughing and cheering him on!
