Your Top 5 racing drivers of all time??? - Page 2

LeinsCSL · 26-01-2013, 10:47 AM

These are my favourites, not necessarily the best, as can't really comment on Nuvolari, Ascari (x2), etc. Only know the tales

1) Senna
2) Loeb
3) G. Villeneuve
4) Derek Bell
5) A. Vatanen

Senna
Schumacher
Loeb
Makinen
Toivonen

Certainly not my favourite 5 but all pretty impressive, there are so many that deserve a good shout

You are all so wrong. Know your history. Modern drivers have their place but they aren't in this class. In no particular order:

Fangio - no explanation required.
Nuvolari - for Nurburgring 1935 alone but he achieved so much more.
Jim Clark - probably the best of all time.
Senna - best in modern time.
Gilles Villeneuve - best natural talent and the personification of what a racing driver should be.

Your so wrong....

Fangio - Over rated
Nuvolari - top 5 not top 500
Jim Clark - Average
Senna - BEST OF ALL TIME
Villeneuve - top 20

+ Rally drivers??? Loeb, Colin?

"Scottish racing drivers"

Seb Lobe has got to be one of the best what an art he has

Neil M · 26-01-2013, 04:22 PM

Nuvolari - For his passion and flair
Moss - the Champion that never was, Mille Miglia 1955 average speed in excess of 100mph on cobbled streets.
Fangio - The Master of all times. eg. Nurbugring 1957 say no more.
Shumacher - The best in modern time, single mindedness to win whatever it took.
Sebastian Vettel - The air apparent and natural successor to Schumie. (not shimmy)
