With Fernando Alonso taking to the Indy 500 in the not so distant future we imagine that, when not practicing, he’s boning up on the greatest Indy master-strokes of recent memory to pick up a few tips.

To that end, Fernando, we’ll offer a helping hand with the video above. We find ourselves on board during 2010’s running as Tony Kanaan weaves his way from his 33rd starting position up to 25th in only two turns. It looks as if he’s playing an Indy racing game with the difficulty set to easy, as car after car disappears in his mirrors. This is the definition of getting the jump!
