12 F1 Fan comments on “Best F1 Drivers Ranking

  1. Mark Harris

    This table is highly distorted by the current point scoring system. Either all positions should be score equally on todays system or the total point scored column should be removed.
    Just compare the point of Max Verstappen (2207) to Ayrton Senna (614) with virtually similar results.
    Please reclassify by sorting the number of 1st place, 2nd place, 3rd place, etc. The ranking then becomes :
    1. Lewis Hamilton
    2. Michael Schumacher
    3. Sebastien Vettel
    4. Alai Prost
    5. Max Verstappen
    6. Ayrton Senna
    etc.

      Thanks for the feedback Mark. You achieve what you want by pressing on the column with "1st". The only thing is that the number on the left stays the same. You can sort every column that way.

    How comes Schumacher ranking is so bad with seven titles and more than 150 podiums? does F1 want Shumacher to be disappeared and forgotten? Nonsense

    I agree with Mark on the points issue but ignoring the points I would have to say the greatest driver would be Juan Fangio with five championships on four different teams and starting his F1 career in his 30’s. BUT, Ignoring even that and trying to work in length of career, to me, it would boil down to the highest percentage of first places versus number of races entered. Poles mean nothing to me if you can’t win the race.

    Ignoring people like Wallard who only had a couple entries… This puts Juan Fangio as the best driver with a 47% win ratio.

    I forgot to mention but will say that Max Verstappen is looking to be one of the top five and possibly the greatest of all time. As much as I dislike the arrogant little bastard… He’s got great support, a team with a boatload of money and he turned into a good driver after crashing everyone in his first 2 seasons, I can’t take that away from him.

    Great article somewhere on this, but the additional factors were did they leave the sport in a better place than from when they started. Also taken into account was their tactics for want of a better term. My hometown boy Jack Brabham is disqualified for spraying debris on the track to disadvantage those following.
    I disqualify Hamilton for lying to stewards and berating &. demeaning a child then proudly posting it on the net.
    So with that in mind, that it is not all about figures to me. I go

    1 Jackie Stewart for results and changing F1 forever safety wise and being the prime mover in saving lives and horrendous injuries.

    2 I'm making my own ruler!
    Bracketing Ascari/Fangio

    3 Jim Clark man & any machine as one

    4.Graham Hill, Indy/le Man's/Monaco

    5. Max Verstappen did it young and still evolving.

    (I think! I disqualified myself by not disqualifying.Max for being rough and tough!)

      Albert Park 2024 .By George, that's exactly why I rated Stewart so high. In a Chapman car no chance. George should send Jackie a thank you card. No he needs to call. (Jackie was and is severely dyslexic and can't read. )That's supposed not be a supportive statement, not a put down.

        When I read by George, I thought you referring to his last lap accident , in which Fernando braked earlier ..... mmmmmmmm, and a superb reference to the Dame, whose excuse tally after 3 races is now upto 5 by my count

    Esta lista no aplica para lo sucedido en pista con los mejores pilotos. Sin importar el orden, Ayton Senna y Juan Manuel Fangio fueron pilotaje puro, calidad. Nada de lo que existe en La actualidad, demostraron su calidad en cada una de las escuderías para la cual corrieron.
