OK, so Amblecote, Killay 2, Yello and Swebbelli are all in the shot as well, but just like their drivers and the assembled crowds, you're all looking at Killay 1 and Barlestone.

More specifically, you're wondering how on earth the Killay driver got it all so hugely wrong.

I mean, running up the back of someone is one thing, but in this instance, the Welsh driver has run not only up Barlestone's rear wheels, but completely over them, and the Barlestone driver's left arm and leg as well, before finishing off the move by driving over car 26's front wheels and performing a stylish roll-over into the bargain. Incredible.

Note to everyone else: Legitimate passing moves are to the right or left of a single car, or between multiple cars. Trying to go through a single car is simply never going to work. Oh, and when you're beached on someone else's rear wheels, STOP PEDALLING and HIT THE BRAKES.

Top marks to Lynn for being on the shutter nice and promptly!
