Most of his races finished early. He couldn't figure out how to drive the car either. I think they had to put eveything possible on auto for him. Dark forces at McLaren? Well, he would say that, wouldn;t he. He was simply embarrassing. If I remember correctly, Andretti couldn’t handle the starts, being used to a rolling start. Most of his races finished early.

Nice piece, as some of these names I don't necessarily recall being in CART although I've watched it on and off since I was a teenager. (That is, much longer than Formula 1.)

The Unsers were the first clan Legend. But before Cart there was another mithic drivers. Dan Gurney ("Gurneys" invention). And "Beleive if you can" AJFoyt with an old front engine "Dirty Truck" leading Jim Clark with modern rear engine Lotus in Milwaukee is something of the other world. http://br.youtube.com/watch?v=okpj28E55U4&...feature=related Mario Andretti arrived in F1 with a pole position at his first start with a Lotus 49.

Great series, can't wait for the next part! I was going to ask about Emerson Fittipaldi until I realized (quite late, indeed) that it was an alphabetical list.
