STIRLING MOSS // TOPS THE LIST

Sir Stirling Moss has been named the greatest Formula One driver of all time. Taking the top spot on a list, somewhat recently published in the book 'Top 100 F1 Drivers of all time.' Moss ranked higher than a long list of F1 greats, with the top four (Moss, Clark, Senna and Prost) having a total of 133 wins between them. Author Alan Henry stated, "Moss's versatility was astonishing, separated from the dynamic Clark by only a thin margin, but in the end it is Stirling who gets the nod; perhaps the nature of Jimmy's exclusive relationship with Lotus counts subconsciously against him."
