To compare any on the list to Jacky "the rain meister" Ickx pointless.


Paul Frere was a truly great writer on motorsport & driving.

Olivier Gendebien was a good and well liked but nowhere near great.


Boutsen & Gachot only get votes because a few people distantly remember them, in Gachot's case mainly for getting arrested in London.

The rest even I have never heard of.

I voted for Gachot, a very good driver. Second would be Boutsen, very handy in the wet too.

i had a big choice between Gachot and Boutsen, Gachot because he was one of the first drivers of you know what, and Boutsen because he was the first driver I ever saw take a win for Williams at Canada in 1989 and possibly one of the most underrated drivers. :)
