You've got to love these lists haven't you? lol
The're a good talking point but are pretty meaningless really, as they only portray the opinion of the author themselves. Each and everyone of us could create our preferred list and they'd all be different. Its quite interesting to see Button so far in front of Hamilton and Kimi placed at 13... In my opinion and this is my opinion, I'd put Kimi and Lewis next to each other with Kimi in front due to his outright record of race wins over Lewis's successfull 3 seasons. I do think in time Lewis will overtake Kimi in the stakes for 'greatest', but as of 2009 its clearly Kimi... Button has just won his well deserved first WDC and I'm not surprised he is ahead of Lewis. The British press love a new story and the 2008 WDC is old news to them now, so the hype of Button finally clinching a well fought championship is hard to ignore. If JB doesn't perform as well as he has this year next season, I would expect the Times not to include him in this list next year due to the fickle nature of out beloved tabloids...

i was hoping others would feel the urge to post their own lists too, it would be interesting to see what people value in F1 drivers. They do take a little while to do though...

Abit of a dodgy list??

Maybe later if i can be arsed... although your list had no Jean Alesi and so is an automatic fail...

[Gilles 27]

Alesi was in at number 60 so he didn't make my top 50. is that ok?

McLaren stopped developing their car about a race later than Ferrari.

Actually no, McLaren brought their last upgrade to Singapour and Ferrari to Hungary I think. But that doesen't matter because you can't compare Kimi and Lewis atm. They should be on top or in the same car.

List is a fck-up imo though

[Jensonb]

When will people learn? You cannot compare the quality of F1 drivers, it's simply impossible.

[McLaren Fan]

You could have got a more accurate list taking names out of a hat at random.

[7UpJordan]

JV's too high up, needs to be much lower. Same goes for Button too, how he can be rated higher than Gilles and Emerson Fittipaldi I'll never know.

[hypertek]

i think its too soon to include current drivers like LH in there hes only got 3 seasons under his belt pretty much.

Agreed

[Hexagram]

The only thing right about that list is Alonso being higher than Kimi & Hamilton.

(PS. sorry it's in Spanish - I nicked the list from marca.es)

Sorry it is Spanish? More like, ¡MUCHAS GRACIAS QUE ES EN ESPAÑOL! Although going back to the list, Michael Schumacher should be first. No doubt here. Good to see Lewis Hamilton as far down as 21st and better drivers than him like Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkonen higher up.
