I wouldn't disagree that there is an optimal way around the track, but it's not clear that there is a
unique one, especially when you consider how the condition of the car/tires change depending on how you drive and/or track conditions. Not to mention, you aren't always necessarily at the edge of the friction circle.
Also, once you consider racing, then often times they don't drive the line, since there are other cars out there which need to be passed or prevented from passing.
