The first that jumps to mind is Riccardo Patrese. Also Ronnie Peterson, after the excellent film which Top Gear did recently on the Lotus 79.
9th May 2019, 9:07 at 9:07 am #393745CasanovaParticipantPerhaps Villeneuve: 13?
9th May 2019, 8:58 at 8:58 am #393744CasanovaParticipant…or Brambilla: 1?
9th May 2019, 8:55 at 8:55 am #393743CasanovaParticipantHow about Fabi: 2?
8th May 2019, 18:07 at 6:07 pm #393735CasanovaParticipantI think I’m working along the same lines as @Alonshow, but I reckon Schumacher: 182
26th February 2016, 9:59 at 9:59 am #313276CasanovaParticipantKeep it, and demand compensation from the FIA for nicking your idea :)
12th May 2014, 12:44 at 12:44 pm #260090CasanovaParticipantDefinitely Kvyat round the outside on Gutierrez – a great piece of gutsy opportunism and racing instinct.
20th November 2013, 10:22 at 10:22 am #245480CasanovaParticipantHas to be Bottas on Gutierrez – was a bold and ballsy pass in an inferior car, in a location where few attempted a pass all race long.

26th August 2011, 10:01 at 10:01 am #176881CasanovaParticipantI fear Kubica’s hand will end up like Massa’s head or Herbert’s foot. He’ll come back, but will never quite reach his old level. But I would love to be proved wrong, and for Kubica’s hand to emulate Schumacher’s legs or Lauda’s burns.
8th August 2011, 7:53 at 7:53 am #175980CasanovaParticipant1) Do you spend some money on F1 or get along with what is available for free (websites, free-to-air TV coverage)?
Apart from a TV license, I don’t spend any money on F1. I won’t be paying for Sky.
2) What kind of F1 related items do you usually buy and how often? Race tickets, magazines, books, model cars, teamwear, DVDs,…?
I don’t buy merchandise, and I no longer subscribe to F1Racing magazine (too expensive, and with the pace of F1 news these days, it’s out of date by the time it lands on the doormat).
I’ve never been to a race. I’d love to, and I live conveniently close to Silverstone, but for me it’s prohibitively expensive. I was considering planning a holiday in Turkey to attend the Turkish GP next year (given that it’s a great track, and the tickets are some of the cheapest on the calendar). But now it looks like the GP will be cancelled; perhaps I’ll go to the Hungaroring instead.
3) Do you save money by refusing from something just to be able to spend it on F1 related stuff? I mean, do you buy less clothes, avoid eating out or do whatever else just because so there is more left for F1?
No.
4) Approximately how big part of your “entertainment budget” is spent on F1? One tenth, one third, one half?
Nil.
18th May 2011, 14:07 at 2:07 pm #168804CasanovaParticipantI think McLaren would want another top-line driver and Ferrari would want another fast doormat… Here’s how things could look next year if this happened. I’ve used the current 2011 constructors championship standings (mostly) to determine the numbers etc.

5. Jenson Button
6. Nico Rosberg
Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro
7. Fernando Alonso
8. Felipe Massa

10. Robert Kubica (provided he’s fit again, here’s hoping)
11. Vitaly Petrov
12. Bruno Senna
Mercedes GP Petronas F1 Team
14. Nico Hülkenberg
15. Michael Schumacher (let’s see if his odd-number preference extends to numbers >13)
16. Nick Heidfeld
Sauber F1 Team-Ferrari
17. Kamui Kobayashi
18. Sergio Pérez
19. Sam Bird
Scuderia Toro Rosso-Ferrari
20. Jaime Alguersuari

10th February 2011, 10:40 at 10:40 am #159739CasanovaParticipantI remember the last few races of the 1994 season; I was 9 years old. I particularly remember watching in disbelief as Schumacher clattered Hill in Adelaide and won the championship. It was only when I got a book of F1 history for Christmas soon afterwards that I even heard of Senna, Prost, Fangio, Stewart, Clark… and was saddened to realise that I had missed the chance to see Senna and Prost race by a matter of months.
