VIDEO: Sainz's epic unseen last-lap overtake on Hulkenberg
The move earned him P6 in the standings!
You might not have seen it during the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix broadcast, but Carlos Sainz's last-lap overtake on Nico Hulkenberg is definitely worth a watch!
Sainz had to get by the Renault on the last lap to secure the final point-paying position if he was to overhaul Pierre Gasly in sixth place in the drivers' championship.
Having run out of road in the first DRS zone, the second into Turn 11 would effectively give Sainz one last chance to make it stick.
The McLaren man went big and bold up the inside of Hulkenberg – here's how it played out.
Last lap: P11. Needs a P10 finish to seal 6th in the championship...
