 Hey....I take exception to answer #2.  If the person who was in first place lapped the track, it's quite possible he could overtake the person in last place.

So if I got those answers wrong...what does it tell you about me?

  LOL!!!

 It tells me that you're like me.....answering without fully comprehending the questions (I got them all wrong!)

[P.C.]

Well....if I count my answer to #2 correct...and I think it's corrector ( ) than theirs....then I got them all right.
