During the second race of the 5Club MX5 Cup Silverstone International in Europe, driver James Rogers was casually piloting his Mazda around the track. As he attempted to overtake fellow racer Ben Short, his car receives a daring—and hilarious—little adjustment from Short.

Once the video hit Reddit, cries of unsportsmanlike conduct popped up everywhere, while others commended Short for his off-the-charts trolling level. Redditor j0be even immortalized the move in a GIF.
