Head-to-head racing against opponents is a challenging and emerging topic in the domain of autonomous racing. We propose Predictive Spliner, a data-driven overtaking planner designed to enhance competitive performance by anticipating opponent behavior. Using Gaussian Process (GP) regression, the met
