> not only had i lapped every car in the field

So you were the fastest car that night.

> i cant pass one car which i had previously had over 2 laps down in this race and had made up 6 seconds in 10 laps on

Bristol is a tough place to pass. Even when you are the faster car. The short straightaways and tight, fast turns make it difficult to get past someone. You were lapping at about 15.8 seconds, he was lapping at about 16.1 seconds. That translates to an average speed differential of 3.2 mph, or 5.1 km/h. A difference of only 3 mph is tiny at Bristol when you're trying to pass; you can't pull alongside on a straight because the straights are so short and quick, and there isn't enough braking to get inside someone into a turn.

The fastest car doesn't always win.

> and what is with the guy 13 laps down in 11th place ahead of cars 3 laps down

I didn't see that. Sometimes the broadcast glitches and drivers get all out of order. It's a known bug (and strictly a visual bug; the underlying data is not bugged) that has been around for years. Sometimes it fixes itself if you reload the page to restart the broadcast.
