If you look at the stats (not in raw numbers but in percentage), it is rather Fangio and Clark who stand out. Then numbers do not tell the whole truth because the sport was quite different at their eras.Objectively the best ever is the driver with the best stats, everything else is subjective.

At times I wonder about that!Yeah…but we’re not robots, are we?![]()
did you even read your own comment or are you just triggered ferrari lost last year when they had the better car?
Agree with this somewhat. I don't think you can have a GOAT discussion without Sébastien Loeb name in the mix. Shame they never gave him the f1 license. I mean, the dude was back to back 9x world rally champion... if that doesn't show he can handle a car, what does? And second place in Le Mans back in 2006 and a string of excellent records in all motoring sports he got himself into. Dude is crazy good!Is "best ever" even limited to F1 - plenty of rally drivers would surpass F1 drivers IMO

B) He always had winning car, but couldn't exploit it to the limits. Like Vettel did for example in 2011 & half of 2013
D) Except he had nothing with the engineering marvel that Mercedes was developing from 2012 for times that came which eliminated drivers influence by great extent (look at Renault , car giant manufacturer for 6 years now, or should I bring Alonso...) anyway it is more likely rather than not, it's Schumacher who made them what they are today.
My opinion, he is one of the best ever and that is it. You can’t compare different eras. However, I also expect that with Max in Bottas’s place he would run circles around Lewis (especially last 12 months Max). And that is all normal, every new generation should learn from previous ones and improve, that’s why records exist to see if sport is going forward or not.
P.S. I am not Verstapen fan boy, just to avoid confusion.![]()
If you want to talks about stats, then ok, but talk about real stats, and not only numbers of time.... Better win stat is fangio and ascari, better pole stat is Clarck ...etc.....so OBJECTIVELY, what were you sayin' ?Objectively the best ever is the driver with the best stats, everything else is subjective.
