Choose your greatest ever Formula one driver.

From March 2,2009, http://www.espnstar.com, along with SportsCenter India, Asia & Malaysia, and Score Tonight, will be running a joint Online and On Air initiative to decide which star from a whole host of drivers has made the biggest impact on the high-octane, adrenaline-pumping world of Formula One.

From the legendaryJuan Manuel Fangio who won five F1 titles in the 1950s, to modern day star Lewis Hamilton, there is a stellar list of driving aces contending for the right to be crowned “The Greatest” – and it is your vote that will decide who wins.

Below, you'll see a list of sixteen drivers who have wowed F1 crowds over the years. When voting opens, we're looking for you to decide exactly who was “The Greatest" F1 driver ever. Click on any drivers image to find out more about them and their achievements.

This actually doesn't come as a shock to me. It's the sports channel which broadcasts F1 in Asia, and probably has one of the most moronic commentators ever working for them. A guy called Steve Slater. You think James Allen is bad, wait till you have to bear him week after week.

I mean my 5 year old cousin could tell a Toyota apart from a Honda last season, but not this guy. And yes, I'm serious, this actually happened once.

Plus, it's obvious that the inclusion of Yoong and Karthikeyan is only a bonehead and desperate move by this channel to get newbies from this part of the world interested in F1. Kimi and Lewis also happen to be very famous here too.

Eddie Irvine should be the greatest.

[F1boat]

Why Yoong and Kartikeyan are there?!

[Big Ben]

karthi... what's his name?... yeah... that's the one!

[Sonic]

Now I ask you: Would Caracol TV in Colombia include Juan Pablo Montoya on such a list? Would TV3 in New Zealand included Denny Hulme in such a list?

[K-Pu]

I miss Yuji Ide in that list...

Anyway, these "vote the best" lists are an interesting thing...
After checking the results you realize how wrong you were if you thought Senna (for example) was the best ever and now it turns out that the best of the best and the bestest is Alex Yoong.

If you make that poll in Spain the result is obvious... But if you ask for the best motor sport racer in Spain people will still say that it´s is Alonso, forgetting about Ángel Nieto, Jordi Tarrés, Carlos Sáinz (well, this one not really...) and others.

Conclussion: it all depends on your knowledge (limited or not) of something. The more you know, the better for you, but maybe your eyes will bleed with these kind of... whatever you might call that poll.

Exactly.....Sportscenter India is pathetic most of the times anyways.

Atleast these 2 channels bring us F1 live + Spanish and English football leagues.
