Northern Hemisphere racing list really

[Rivelution]

I love how Raikkonen did just as well as Lewis yet he is placed 15. He raced his arse off bringing in points, podiums, even a win yet he is lower than Massa who raced only half a season

Northern Hemisphere racing list really

Montoya isnt from the northern hemisphere, nor is mark Webber, nor is felipe Massa,nor is Rubens barichello, and Im sure theres others in there. Thing is there are just loads more international drivers from the northrn hemisphere.

F1 is international. rallying is international. Ok the American ones are only in America. I dont know any southern hemisphere ones that attract top line drivers. What are they?

V8 Supercars has just as talented drivers as any, infact in Australia it is the top series in which a race driver can race in, unless he is a rich kid who can afford the hike to Europe to try and make it in a top open wheeler series.

Jamie Whincup recently won his second consecutive title but ultimately that doesnt compare to NASCARs Jimmy Johnson even though theres not one oval in the V8 series! they have even had rounds at China and Bahrain but they dont call it a world championship....

maybe if they relocate North people up there might take notice!

LOL It wasnt in a list format, each driver had a picture and a bit written about him, so even if Id found it online I dont think it would have copied properly.

Daniel Ricciardo is on that list!

And I think that quite clearly Valentino Rossi is the best in the World. But it looks like motorbikes don't count.

This list is bull!

I'm happy for Vettel to be up there. but tbh Ricciardo shouldn't be on that list. I also believe Raikkonen and Alonso are better than Hamilton and Button, thus putting my beloved Vettel down to 6th at least. Add in Rossi, Stoner and Reed, and then where does he place?

However, shouldn't the race of champions decide who's the best?

My list, featuring only F1 and Moto GP.

1. Valentino Rossi
2. Kimi Raikkonen
3. Fernando Alonso
4. Lewis Hamilton
5. Jenson Button
6. Michael Schumacher
7. Sebastien Vettel
8. Casey Stoner


Obviously this is an un-educated opinion as I am too senseless to follow other series.

Motorbike racing is a different skill technique to racing 4 wheels.

As a Mclaren Fan I still don't think Lewis should of been named #1
