Every driving school i have been to it has been expressly taught that thumbs go no where near the inside of the wheel, for wxactly the before mentioned examples. Proper driving position should be elbows at 90* or less, hands at 9 and 3. Wheel is passed hand to hand, driving with the hands, not the shoulders.
Dan, while I completely agree with you,...I find it "funny" how this driver, driving a 64 Cheetah, known for being a handful of a car, drives the entire course, lap after lap with his thumbs locked around the rim of the wheel.....the driver is Mr Bob Bondurant... 
LOL.
