My Vote on the Greatest Ever F1 Driver!



[ad]

It’s easy. I can even make my vote in my dreams or coma and it’s still the same outcome. No, it’s not Alan Prost, nor Ayrton Senna, nor Mika Hakkinen nor any of those old farts in the past.

My vote goes to one driver and one driver only – Michael Schumacher. I would’ve placed my vote on Ayrton Senna if there was a second place voting. Schumacher is statistically the greatest F1 driver the sport has ever seen.

Read em and weep all you non-Schuey fans. If you cannot acknowledge this dude’s accomplishments, then you’re in a massive state of denial.

I’ve looked at the remaining matchups, and making a decision on my choices are fairly straightforward. After looking at the ESPN’s Website, the current votes are for a spot in the semi-finals. Prost vs Raikkonen = I chose Prost. Senna vs Schumacher = Schumacher hands down. Lauda vs Andretti = the voting’s not open yet and I couldn’t care less. Hakkinen vs Alonso = Hakkinen.

ESPNSTAR’S THE GREATEST EVER F1 DRIVER GAME

There is one matchup in the voting that I thought was a major mismatch – Alex Yoong vs Ayrton Senna. I know that ESPN probably meant well to have an Asian driver so the voters might be interested. Alex Yoong may have made Malaysians feel a little proud, but Ayrton Senna’s history in the race has made him a clear and logic victor in this matchup.

I would’ve preferred a Michael Schumacher vs Ayrton Senna “final” though.
