WRONG again. Tell me Sunshine, how can you overtake the LAST person??
I always liked this little quiz, but i never agreed with this question.
Assuming the race follows a circular route (non linear race) then you could be in
any place between "first" and "second to last"... it is possible to pass the last person assuming you have
lapped them.
of course the question does not specify whether or not this is a linear race from point A to point B or if it is a track style of race based on a number of laps on an oval course.
however when one considers this viewpoint... it is in fact quite possible to pass the person on last place.
