Breaking Up.
If there are forty cups on the table and one cup breaks, how many tea cups are left?

3, but I don't like it.

You could be in any position as the first person could still be in front of you.

Also, I don't think lapping someone counts as overtaking them.

Also, I don't think lapping someone counts as overtaking them.

If it were a straight race then you couldn't over take the last person, because if you were behind them then they wouldn't be last
