Overtake Award

The Overtake Award is an award introduced in 2021 Formula One Season to reward the individual driver who makes the most overtakes throughout the season. It is currently named after crypto.com, one of the main sponsors of Formula One.[1] For the 2022 season, the award has been modified: the amount of overtakes does not count any more, instead the fans are voting for the best overtake of each Grand Prix via social media. At the end of the season there will be a social media poll to determine the overall winner.[2]
