Any thoughts on who you think the best british driver is of all time? At the moment i would go with Buttton, but what about in the past.

Close between Clark and Moss but I'd personally go with Moss for his complete versatility.

Clark was versatile too but I think Moss was more so.

I think the greatest Brit ever in F1 is definitely Sir Stirling, if he was a racer today he'd still be the best, he is also a sponsor's dream, so thats plus too if we're talking about modern F1.

Having said that, I think Alonso said it, the best F1 driver ever has never even sat in a race car, and if he has, he has never cared for it. So I think this applies here as well.

Sir Stirling.

Clark, Collins, Stewart, and Seaman were all awesome. Sir Stirling Moss is my favorite driver ever. Very Happy

Jackie Stewart is my personal fave, but perhaps Jim Clark and Moss are in a tie.

Why don't we make it a poll, then? Very Happy
