I read some comments, at least one Nascar fan admitted that Schumi should be at #1, and the guy that ranked them acknowledged that most F1 fans wouldnt rank any Nascar drivers :bowdown:

The only argument I could make for this list, is if the author specified "Drivers that have made the biggest impact in the U.S.". That would make much more sense. But "Greatest Drivers of All-Time"? Not so much.

But since it includes a couple of drag racers, "Greatest Deivers of All-Time" makes more since.

That list is so full of fail and aids it's pathetic...

Only NASCRAP drivers that deserve to be on that list are Petty and Earnhardt, both should be in the top 10, but Petty should be higher...

Schumi and Senna should be Tied for #1...

2.)Tie=Jenson Button Jim Clark David Coultard
3.)Damon Hill

AErrorist's Top 5 drivers of all time

5. Takuma Sato-
The little asian that can, Sato knows -nothing- but to hammer. Nothing. Here is Sato's schedule for today....
Wake Up
Hammer
Breakfast
Hammer
Hammer
Crash
Hammer some more

4. James Hunt / Kimi Raikkonen

3. Ayrton Senna

2. Michael Schumacher- Needs no description, fast, smart, but a bit of a cheating cunt (See: Imola 94, Monaco 06, etc)

1. Ayrton Senna- Yes, Senna is so good he gets ranked twice...

Too many American circle jerkers. Schumacher is above Senna, Clark and Fangio to appeal to the idiots who have no idea about Formula One.

In fact, like usual with ESPN, far too much of an American 'feel' to this list. Shouldn't be suprised though...:ugh:

AJ Foyt number one? Fuck off. That's appealling to the base slack-jawed yokel.
