I'm not so sure McNish had no idea the Ferrari was there. Wouldn't he have seen the GT up ahead as it went through the chicane some distance in front of the other Audi? Therefore, wouldn't he have known what his teammate was slowing for?
And aside from all that, apart from the pit straight, there is NOWHERE on that circuit where it is advisable for someone to even attempt a double pass on two other cars that are fully on the track.
Finally, of course, I don't think any GT driver would have even dreamt that a prototype, much less an Audi, much less McNish himself, would even try a move like that at that point.
