Overtakes

On-track passes and genuine undercuts (the two cars were actually racing, under 3s, before the stop) -- an opportunistic gap from a rival's pit stop or retirement doesn't count here (see that driver's own page for those)

Counted from lap-by-lap track position, not the final classified result -- for a driver who retires, those two can genuinely disagree (classification depends on laps completed, not where they were running when they stopped).
