Formation finish

[3] Audi and Bentley, part of the Volkswagen Group, dominated the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the 2000s, doing several formation finishes to celebrate.

To celebrate his 1991 Formula One title, Ayrton Senna slowed down at the last corner of the Japanese Grand Prix to let his teammate Gerhard Berger overtake him and finish in formation.

[citation needed] At the 2002 United States Grand Prix, Michael Schumacher – who had won ten races during the season – slowed down in the final lap to set a formation finish with Ferrari teammate Rubens Barrichello.

The first occurred in 1977 when Allan Moffat and Colin Bond spent the majority of the final lap side-by-side in their Ford XC Falcons.

The Holden Dealer Team repeated the feat in 1984, with Peter Brock slowing on the final lap to allow teammate David Parsons to cross the finish line next to him.
