Sterling Moss at number 10 is a driver who is a true legend Sterling Moss was the most gifted and versatile racing driver Britain has ever produced another driver for whom simply listing the statistics is only scraping the surface but winning 212 of 529 races is a very high hit rate he was the driver his opponents feared and he was possibly the best Formula One driver who never won a World Championship he’d race almost anything sports cars touring cars GT cars Grand Prix cars and everything in between Sterling would be outstanding in all of them Sterling was so patriotic that he always preferred driving British Vehicles even if they weren’t necessarily race winners he came the closest to winning the championship in 1958 but for the scoring system in effect at the time his standing as an F1 icon has not changed number nine Fernando Alonso Fernando Alonso would be much higher on this ranking if it was solely based on Raw skill the Spaniard is one of the best drivers of his generation inspiring a new generation of Spanish drivers a twice world champion and 32-time race winner who could have won five titles if the dice had fallen more favorably and Alonso had chosen who and when he competed for more intelligently when he joined the scraderia Ferrari in 2010 he was possibly only the third driver after Nikki louder and Michael Schumacher to wield enough personality domination over the team to convincingly build it around himself Alonso is a terrific energetic and competent driver who has found success wherever he goes number eight Jackie Stewart a natural racer he spent his childhood watching his father race motorcycles while his older brother Jimmy competed in the 1953 British Grand Prix although it may appear to be an inherent feature of F1 Jackie Stewart was one of the first drivers to illustrate that drivers can and should strive for improved safety standards Stewart has The credibility needed to transform the culture of safety in Motorsport as a triple champion and dominant force in the sport aside from his quest for safety Stewart was a brilliant racer who was the man to beat during his career winning three World titles with kentura’s eponymous team as the two formed an Unstoppable double act in the late 1960s and early 1970s formula one would not be as safe without Jackie number 7. Sebastian Vettel vettel’s Formula One career began in 2007 and in his first three years he took nine podiums and five wins but this was nothing compared to what was to come over the next four years he became the face of Formula One winning four successive championships and becoming the Sport’s youngest world champion taking the Accolade from Lewis Hamilton he also set records for the most Podium finishes in a season the most victories in a season the most pole positions in a season the most laps LED in a season the most consecutive wins the most consecutive grand slams and the most wins from pole in a season regulation changes in 2014 did not favor Red Bull or Vettel and the team swiftly slid back through the pack he went from nine consecutive wins in the final nine races of the 2013 season to not winning a single race until 2015 and he’s only won 14 races since then despite this until his retirement at the end of the 2022 season he was universally recognized as one of the best drivers on the grid and his list of Records is expected to last for many more seasons number six Juan Manuel fangio when formula one was in its infancy Argentinian Juan Manuel fangio dominated for a decade winning five championships in the 1950s fangio raced in the first season of Formula One in 1950 finishing second in the drivers Championship after his withdrawal in the last race allowed Giuseppe Farina to win the championship fangio’s anguish during the 1950 season on the other hand was quickly forgotten the Argentine went on to win five World titles all in his first eight seasons winning 24 races fangio was responsible for Mercedes first Formula One World Championships because formula one was so different in the 1950s it’s difficult to compare fangio to other drivers in contrast banjio retired with the highest winning percentage in Formula One history a record that Still Remains today number five Nikki louder there is no better narrative than Nikki louder’s career a spectacular comeback that was transformed into a film louder won the world title in 1975 but his career and life were almost cut short in 1976 due to a terrible incident in the German Grand Prix which left him with life-threatening injuries that doctors believe should have killed him despite this louder was back in Formula One six weeks later albeit the 1976 title was Out Of Reach louder came back strong winning the title in 1977. his closest title fight came a decade later when he beat McLaren teammate Alain Prost by half a point louder was a major part in Mercedes dominance throughout the Turbo Hybrid era although he is better recognized as a fantastic racing driver louder won 25 races throughout his career which could have easily been cut short but the Austrian had more courage than any Formula One driver in history a truly exceptional man and racer number four Elaine Prost the driver placed fourth on this list more than deserves to be here to begin with he’s won four World Championships and more than and moreover 50 Grand Prix and his racing skill is arguably the purest of all time Elaine prosts precise manner enabled him to compete against it and Senna in the heated Feud for which he is most famous his secret weapon was a combination of speed and intellect and he possessed a natural excellence in his driving that allowed Pros to become France’s first world champion in 1985. in 1987 he broke Jackie Stewart’s record of 27 victories and a year later McLaren won 15 of 16 races demonstrating the powers of both Prost and Senna Prost remained at the top of his game until his retirement at the age of 38 when he won his fourth and last championship for Williams the professor as he was dubbed is without a doubt one of the greatest of all time and he well deserves his position on this list number three Michael Schumacher who knew in 1991 that this German rookie for Jordan will go on to become one of the greatest drivers of all time some thought he’d never be surpassed as a racer many consider him to be the greatest race car driver of all time Michael Schumacher possessed all of the qualities that would distinguish him as the ideal Racer Speed Focus courage judgment character and arrogance until the emergence of Hamilton he was the face of Formula One dominance seven titles five of them consecutive and almost overwhelming number of Victories and unwavering competitiveness Schumacher changed the game in Formula One with his mix of devotion passion and of course raw Brilliance he won two titles with Benetton although he is best known for his time with Ferrari he joined the squad in 1996 and despite numerous ups and downs in the Years thereafter the combination struck gold in 2000 five World Championships 48 victories and a record book featuring Michael Schumacher’s name in almost every category followed during the next five years number two Lewis Hamilton certain records were thought to be unbreakable but then came Lewis Hamilton onto the scene in terms of career victories and overall career polls Lewis Hamilton is the most successful Formula One driver the British driver has won races in 30 different countries has won a race in every season he has raced in until last season and is currently tied with Michael Schumacher for the most World titles having just missed out on an eighth World title to Max bustaphan in 2021 Lewis made his formula one debut with McLaren in 2007 a risk taken by McLaren president Ron Dennis that paid off handsomely Hamilton was immediately competitive he just missed out on the 2007 championship by one point but he went on to win it in 2008. he joined the Mercedes F1 team in 2013 and went on to win six of his seven championships it’s tough to imagine another driver ever breaking his record of 103 wins and 103 pole positions number one airton Center supremely talented yes highly dedicated absolutely popular without a doubt Eton Center is widely regarded as the best racing driver of all time there isn’t much to say about the Brazilian superstar that hasn’t already been said except that he was the driver who was willing to go further in search of success than anyone before him the statistics 65 pole positions 41 wins and three World titles reveal a lot about eton’s racing genius Eton was almost a Mystic in his intensity and he truly believed that he had a god-given right to win following a brief spell with Honda his most notable achievements were with McLaren where he formed a heated rivalry with teammate Elaine Prost Senna drove for Williams in 1994 but was killed in a high-speed incident at the San Marino Grand Prix formula one had lost one of its all-time greats far too young but he left a legacy that would not be forgotten the difference
