still is a legend

plus the calendar is way longer now, so with the same time in f1 you have double the chances

Also of note is that Ascari and Jim Clark were both still on the top 10 more than 30 years after their deaths. They accomplished that in somewhat short F1 careers. Have they lived, their numbers would be way more impressive.

He is still a F1 legend. Come to think about the hard times back there

@@Yorgos2007 Percentages are more reliable, and on the %'s, Fangio is unbeatable.

Back when fangio and even later right up to the 70's f1 drivers also competed in the other formulas so if we could find out what events fangio had victorise in we may be able to have a rough estimate. But regardless for him to be in the top 10 race winners 60 years later plus taking into account his car was harder to drive the dangers ect ect should tell you all you need GREATEST OF ALL TIME NO CONTEST followed close by Jim Clarke

why

Makes 0 sense. Schumi gave everything thing he had to earn those wins. Nobody bent the rules to make him win races

Bwahahaha

@@yigithan3713 he literally bumped hill of track in Adelaide 94. Just like Hamilton did with max at Silverstone in 21. That both was no Michael no no, that was so not right.

Hamilton 288 starts

Fangio the real goat, at the time was easier to retire and for that these win % are incredible.

Fangio was simple the best.

@@luca_bagnoli actually not, most drivers at that time werent that good

It's a win percentage that'll never be beaten, that's for sure.

The Greatest of all time according to me But, yeah, he said that the greatest of all time was Clark And if Fangio says that, he is right

Even more impressive considering that many of the drivers in his day stopped adding wins to their total cause they died. Fangio just kept going.

@@alecyerikian8073 and almost all the champs up until recent times said fangio was the greates even schumacher so if fangio recond clarke that should be good enough for the rest of us end of debate👍

Thats because typically in an era there are only 2-3 winners in a year. Go back and look at schumacher and Damon hill. For about 2 years, one of the two won every race. Same with hamilton/vettel/verstappen. Once they got above fangio the drivers below fangio were mot building wins. Its too bad more drivers in f1 dont have better chances to win races.

Alonso nightmare child? The nightmare were the teams: mclaren bet for Hamilton in his first year even though Alonso was twice world champion the last year, then Renault wasn’t the best to come back, then Ferrari was better than Renault but for sure not the best car, then McLaren with GP2 Honda’s engine and now Renault again with a car that hasn’t evolved for 2 years to bet everything for 2022. He had bad luck and F1 is a fucking circus, maybe he is the only one being honest there

@@justiziero sir if you do your research on the bridges Alonso has magnificently burned down (McLaren, Ferrari, Honda Engines, etc.) you’d know he was the most notoriously difficult driver to work with. He said Ron Dennis wasn’t serious about winning the championships when he brought Rookie Lewis Hamilton onto McLaren in 07. NO ONE in F1 or McLaren expected him to be as good as he was. Yet Lewis went on to beat him that year. Alonso left camp abruptly and hasn’t fancied Lewis much ever since. 2010 & 2012 with Ferrari he had the leads in the championships up until the final race in Abu Dhabi & Brazil, respectively and he went on to lose both years to Vettel. After he lambasted Ferrari for the 2014 effort, he left camp and burned that bridge. The abysmal McLaren Honda years were where he burned his Honda bridge (that could have powered him to the Indy 500 win in 2017 but Honda REFUSED to supply the team he was racing with after his “GP2 Engine” outburst in Suzuka years before.) Alpine was the only team that’d take him back and that’s because his options were limited by his own hand. So yes, he was a nightmare child and it’s all his doing.

@@StarCharger28 @Star Charger 28 sorry but I'm Spanish and I researched a lot about what happened with Alonso. When he was in McLaren with Hamilton, the team bet for Hamilton and Alonso said it on TV , he said they were making they pilots fight between them and they were going to lose the championship and that's what happened. In Hungary, it seemed he stopped Hamilton at pitstops, but he was arguing by radio why did he have to change to old hard tyres and Hamilton had new soft tyres. They had a treat where every pilot had a chance more to do the pole, so it was Alonso's turn in that race but Hamilton didn't listen so he broke the treat but there wasn't any consequence. Ron Dennis was with Hamilton the whole time, he knew Hamilton when Hamilton was a child. Maybe you are blind if you can't see that, a British team going with a British pilot that they knew since he was a child. In Ferrari he was second with a much WORSE CAR, meanwhile Vettel had the best car cheating with some pieces from the car which FIA lasted too much to deny them. I don't think being second with a worse car was burning anything. In McLaren with Honda was AWFUL that engine...almost every race they had to retire the car and the car was so slow. Do you really think he is a bad person and no one wants him? That's why he won the 24h in Lemans and he competed in Dakar and came back to FORMULA 1. And there are rumours about Mercedes and Ferrari claiming for Alonso as a possible pilot. This year the real Alonso was shown and I'm so sorry for you, he is a really normal person, not as Hamilton apparenting he is super cool, he is just a normal person driving and being a good friend from all their ex teammates (said by them) meanwhile Hamilton has almost no relationship with the rest because he chose to isolate from the rest of competitors . You are really really wrong! Im so sorry for you ♥️

@@justiziero that explains your bias and ignorance on Alonso’s perception in the mainstream (and his results for that matter). Yes he won Le Mans (in a completely unopposed Toyota) and competed in the Dakar. He’s also failed to qualify for the Indy 500 as well so don’t leave that out. Fernando, as great a driver as he is, soiled opportunities to win titles in McLaren & Ferrari when, competitively speaking, they were at their best. He failed to beat a ROOKIE Hamilton when he was the two time & defending world champion that beat Schumacher the year prior. I don’t get where you think the other teams are interested in Fernando but that couldn’t be further from the truth if it was on the moon, dude 😂! NOBODY wants Fernando on their team besides Alpine. Mercedes NEVER wanted him and neither do Ferrari. I wouldn’t call a guy that has a museum for HIMSELF a normal guy. He may not be into the same things as Lewis (nor does he have to be), but he’s far from a regular dude. Lewis chooses to isolate himself so that he doesn’t have to put up with the ignorance that folks have about how he conducts his business. You’re very ignorant to say the least and you have it backwards on who deserves pity. Your retort was cute though 🥱.

@@StarCharger28 Ferrari at their best? Look how many poles Ferrari did...and the championship was between 6 pilots and I remind you again, Vettel had the best car, not Fernando! And again talking about Hamilton...are you blind? Alonso beated Michael and suddenly it appears Hamilton copying telemetry from Alonso and supported by the whole team and Ron Dennis knew him when HE WAS A CHILD!!! CANT YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STARTING IN MINARDI THAN STARTING DIRECTLY IN MCLAREN??? So...you better shut up 🤗 Hamilton was beaten by a normal pilot, Nico Rosberg not very ambitious 😂😂😂 Alonso beated all his partners except Hamilton where they tied, and I remember you Hamilton was the only pilot with a crane helping him to come back to the race even though there were 6 cars next to him and the crane helped Hamilton. So...if the crane didn't help (just him of course because F1 is British) Alonso would have beaten Hamilton. Hamilton didn't want Alonso in Mercedes, that's why Alonso never had a position there 😉 Ferrari had the best car with Michael and Vettel, but they were cheating and Vettel didn't win neither 😂 Alonso came back this year and beated his team mate even though he started so bad the first half season. About Indy Car...do you really focus on that when he has won many things ? We don't know what happened with that car. Do you use excuses like he won with Toyota because it was the best car? AND WHAT ABOUT HAMILTON WITH THE BEST CAR 6 SEASONS? Beated by a mediocre Nico Rosberg 😂😂😂 Oh wait! He still have the best car and was beated by Max VERSTAPPEN even though he pushed Max in Silverstone (of course at home) and he only had a 10 second penalty and Max 0 points 😂😂😂 this is formula 1, a circus made for Hamilton. Like Fernando says....KARMA!!! 😘🤩♥️

@@alecyerikian8073 Alain Prost is one of the most underrated WDCs. Teaming up with Rosberg, Lauda, Senna and Mansell. Senna never had really a FAST driver next to him, except Prost. And look how it went.

There would have been many more deaths unfortunatly, Clark and Ascari died on the racetrack. Just a comparison, Hamilton is at 36% the third best ever.

This was clearly a different period, better in some ways, worse in some ways. Sometimes, I regret it

I mean, Schumacher has won ~36% of the time between 91-2006. His Mercedes years really mess up his stats.

I think it's because he was sort of overshadowed by Senna

Thanks, consider subscribing for more videos like this!

How many F1 races? 141. Almost twice as many as Clark (72 starts). Nearly as many as Ayrton Senna: 161. Hopefully he equals Senna's starts this year. Age does not mean so much here.

yea, a great driver, team, and car combo doesn't happen often or for that long. And tbh I think regs will keep changing to prevent one or two teams dominating.

His car is the win machine. He is just the lucky driver that can take it over the finish line.

there is no greatest of all time because you cant compare Hamilton with someone like Jim Clark who raced significantly less races in a shorter career, I could also argue Jim Clark is the greatest because he won 90% of races he finished and has 8 Grand Slams but i dont becuase you cant compare drivers across all of time.

I think it's pretty likely he'd be in the top 10 regardless of whether the hybrids came in or not, considering that between 2007-13 he'd already racked up 22 wins.
