WATCH: From a cheeky pit lane pass to a daring Monaco move – Vettel’s best F1 overtakes
Sebastian Vettel said goodbye to Formula 1 at the season finale Abu Dhabi Grand Prix after almost 16 years of racing in the sport. In that time he's produced some unforgettable on track moments, so we thought we would dig through the archives to find the best overtakes from the German's long and trophy-laden career.
From his epic swoop down the inside of Fernando Alonso at Silverstone's Corpse Corner, to his move past Lewis Hamilton down the Kemmel Straight at Spa, Vettel has never been one to shy away from going wheel-to-wheel with his rivals.
Even with retirement pending, he showed that he was still the man for the occasion, making an impressive move past the Haas of Kevin Magnussen on the last lap in Texas and overtaking the faster Red Bull of Sergio Perez in his very last Grand Prix in Abu Dhabi.
Click on the video player above to relive some of the four-time world champion's most remarkable overtakes.
