Lets go through some of the current drivers and suggest what their best overtaking maneovre is. If you want you can mention the best moves of some past drivers.

Alonso- MS in 130r, Japan 2005
Raikkonen- Fisi on the last lap in Japan 2005

Button- His move around Villeneuve in Belgium 2005
Heidfeld- Great move on Alonso coming out of the Monaco tunnel in 2005
DC- His mighty move on MS in France 2000, the move on the lap after he gave MS the finger, or the move in Brazil 2001 on MS in the wet using the backmarker.

Thats a start, I will leave you all to carry on.

Barrichello-Suzuka 01 on Montoya, a brilliant move and was about on the grass when he completed the move. I rate it in the top 5 of best overtakes!

For Barrichello I would go for his move on Raikkonen at Silverstone 03. Set the move up in club, side by side through abbey, Rubens made it stick into Bridge.

For DC what about Brazil 01? Everyone raved about Montoya's move that race but Coulthard pulled something similar later in the race. With DC's move they were also lapping a Minardi at the time and they went three abreast.

Isn't it a sad state of affairs that I can only remember overtaking moves for three or four drivers?

One of the best I've seen was ob Barrichello by Montoya, Suzuka 2003. You don't see many drivers overtaking into Spoon Curve.
