OK, got 4 out of 4 correct.

With the second question however, it's quite possible to overtake the last placed person in a race. You lap them, but you can be in any place in the field other than last and manage to do that. So I'm claiming that as a correct answer.

yeah the second one is dodgy, i found it whilst deleting junk from me pc its an email i got ages ago, still worth a laugh tho,
or maybe you cant overtake the last person coz youre already in front(by 1 lap) dunno what dya reckon????
