Post your favorite drivers. Doesn't have to be just one!

I'll start with Nelson Piquet.

Jean Alesi. Very underrated, his drive for Tyrrell at Monaco was really impressive.

>>6 Agreed. He may not have been as good as Schumacher, but he was definitely deserving of more than that one win in Canada. The Tifosi loved him too.

Jean Alesi was a talented driver, never got the right seat. He stood with Ferrari during their less spectacular years. I agree that with the right team, at the right, he displayed reasonable competence to become a WDC.

Arguably, in my opinion, the very best there ever was and ever will be. He was invincible, could win with almost anything on the field and the won the championship with the smallest point difference, several years older than what the average driver retired at back then.

Interesting point. I've never thought of Lauda as the best, but his technical ability and his talent with less competitive cars (as well as his successful comeback) definitely makes a good case.

Graham Hill. Photographs of him are always the best things.
(Like the time when he drove a bathtub)

Jody Scheckter. His phenomenally aggressive style may have led him to be crash prone, but he has a sense of humor and a personality. He deserved to win multiple championships, especially since he was offered Prost's seat at Renault. He was the last championship winner (even race winner for some time)for Ferrari until Schumacher. Notably Scheckter is the only race winner in a 6 wheeled car, even though Ronnie Peterson drove the Tyrrell P34B in the following year.

In all seriousness though, I think he was one of the greatest drivers of the 1970s. Especially considering that he nearly won the championship in his first full season, and that he had many other close calls in very difficult situations (as the single car for Wolf in its first year, and as the sole race winner for the P34). He also crushed Depailler and Villeneuve. I think it's funny to imagine that the 1973 British Grand Prix crash was caused by a future world champion.

Sheckters Magic in the Wolf was fucking amazing. No one could ever repeat a result such as his in the same car.
