Not a race, just something which happened on the m-way today.
Guy in a brand new Beemer 730d thought it a great idea to permanently hog the 3rd lane of the m-way. I was trundling along in the middle lane passing some lorries, about 4 cars went passed me and were then queued up behind this guy. It got to the point where I was in a situation which meant I would be undertaking the 4 cars queued up and then the beemer, something I don't like doing. So I moved out to the 3rd lane behind the 4 cars queued up behind the Beemer - the middle lane was clear but no-one attempted to undertake the Beemer.
To my surprise, one by one, the 4 cars moved to the middle lane to, what seemed to me, allow me to pass. I got behind the Beemer who was trundling at around 65mph. I sat for about a minute behind him and then gave him a quick flash. Normally, people just forget what they're doing and I always wave a thanks when they move over.
Anyway, this chap moved over, great. About mid-way through my passing him, he decided to boot it? I was in S mode, the road ahead was clear and so I booted it too. He lost.
And that was that.
