was there any particular era where US drivers were prominent?

Only 1961 when Phil Hill (RIP) won the WDC and he is the only American to win the WDC.

Mario Andretti, 1978

Mario was born in Croatia and Phil was born in Florida but yes I did forget about Mario.

It was Italy back then, so he's Italian (and American).

Andretti is an Italic surname not Slavic too.

Just making sure Kiki won't be able to claim him one way or the other

He sat his @ss in a Ferrari she's already laid her hooks on him.

Yep Mario was awesome and I wish Dan Gurney had also won a WDC.

Suprised by USA and Austria so high up.



UK domination though !

Jochen Rindt, Niki Lauda, Gerhard Berger - Austria was mighty. And now again with Red Bull.

yes the Austrian empire rises again! just keep it to F1... you know how the other times turned out.

For the Aussies

Sir Jack Brabham: 31 podiums
Alan Jones: 24 podiums
Mark Webber: 22 podiums

add them up is 77 podiums.

Though i'm not sure if there was any other aussies that made it on the poduim but that what our best 3 f1 drivers from Australia have done.
