1,000 Greatest Drivers List Tier Update
I finished going through all my "near-miss" drivers Saturday night.
Over the past two months, I finished rating all the seasons for all my lock, bubble, and near-miss drivers for the list. Once again, for all post-World War II seasons from 1946-present, I award 100 points for the #1 driver globally, 70 for #2, 50 for #3, 30 for #4, 20 for #5, 10 for all drivers in my E tier (6th-25th), 5 for my E- tier (26th-50th), 3 for my C+ tier (51st-100th), 2 for my C tier (101st-150th), and 1 for my C- tier (151st-200th). You can think of these tiers roughly as E: one of the best drivers in the world (1-5 are obviously still included in E, but I list the top five seasons separately), E-: great but flawed, C+: very good, C: a run-of-the-mill good season with no particular distinction, C-: barely good. This is more of an art than a science although I use as much data as I have to make my evaluations including dominance, consistency, on-track passing (where data are available, which is most F1 races back to the mid-’60s, most NASCAR races back to the mid-’80s, and most IndyCar races back to 1928 or something), clutch performance/championships, versatility across various car and circuit types, impact on teams/comparisons against teammates, and number of elite (E/E-) or competitive (C+/C/C-) seasons. I adjust by equipment as much as I can. For example, I gave Justin Wilson a full E for his 2009 when he gave Dale Coyne his first win in 20 years as a car owner and earned his top ten points finish against an unsplit field, while I only gave Scott Dixon a C- last year; even though he won and finished third in points because he was 26 percentage points slower than Álex Palou in speed percentile; it was essentially a Max Verstappen vs. Sergio Pérez kind of gap, so I docked Dixon accordingly. I try to make those adjustments as much as I can for all series, which is where my open wheel/stock car/touring car model data come in handy.
I have decided all drivers who earn a cumulative total of 25 career points are locks while the bubble is currently set at 14 points. My near-miss tier consists of all drivers with 10-13 career points. There is still definitely a lot of wiggle room here because ideally, I only want to have at most 200 drivers on my annual lists, and I have a lot of individual tier groups that are currently overfilled, which means many drivers will eventually go down in career points, especially drivers from the last 20 years. The most overfilled year right now is probably 2012, where I have 29 Es, 23 E-s, 69 C+s, 73 Cs, and 103 C-s. This means I’m going to have to drop at least 97 drivers from that year to meet my quotas (not counting later drivers I end up adding for that year and there will likely be still more), and a lot of other seasons are close to that too. The actual bubble right now (the 1,000th-highest rated driver) is at 17 points, but that might end up dropping once I “un-stuff” those seasons (which are mostly modern ones), so don’t be surprised if some of the shakier/more precarious locks move down to bubble or some of the shakier/more precarious bubble drivers move down to near miss eventually. (Indeed, I’ve already decided a number of the bubble drivers I intend to drop, but I won’t do that now.)
On the flip side, there are a lot of earlier seasons that are not filled. Obviously, there aren’t as many data available for a lot of series the further you go back in time. If you go all the way back to 1946, for instance, I only have 8 Es, 6 E-s, 9 C+s, 7 Cs, and 15 C-s because there quite honestly weren’t all that many racing series in operation yet. Grand Prix racing was only just beginning to reemerge after Europe was devastated in World War II. NASCAR didn’t exist yet, although its predecessor, the National Championship Stock Car Circuit did, but obviously didn’t have the same prestige (even if many of the drivers who eventually dominated the later Cup seasons competed there; this is why Red Byron is a lock by the way - his career did not start in 1949 and he had 22 career wins from 1946-1948 in both the NCSCC and the first NASCAR Modified season against pretty much the exact same competition he faced in his Cup title year). Most of the world’s racing strength was in IndyCar that year because the US obviously recovered faster from the war, but that IndyCar season was the weirdest in history because there were six full-length championship races and 71 sprint car races that were randomly added to the schedule for that year only; thankfully, Ted Horn would have won the title with or without the sprint car races, making him an obvious #1 for that year. Argentina’s Turismo Carretera series was actually one of the most prestigious in the world at the time, as Juan Manuel Fangio came from there before eventually winning five F1 titles, and honestly, you can make a strong case that both Juan and Oscar Gálvez were better than Fangio when they were all competing against each other in the ‘40s. Quite frankly, I don’t think there will be 200 drivers worth rating that year, so I don’t think I’m going to try to force it. I’m not going to inflate a season and give it a grade it doesn’t deserve just to make sure all my tiers are filled. 200 is my maximum, but plenty of early years likely won’t fill all my tiers and that’s okay.
It gets a little murkier with the pre-World War II years. Since there were substantially fewer series competing in those seasons, I know I absolutely need to award those seasons fewer points. While I definitely want to make sure I include all the true legends from this era, I would vastly rather list second-tier guys from the post-World War II period, while I think I will snub most of those types of drivers from the prewar era. At the moment, I have essentially moved the scale down two tiers from 1905-1941, awarding 50 points for a #1 season, 30 for #2, 20 for #3, 10 for #4, 5 for #5, 3 for E, 2 for E-, and 1 for C+. I remove the C and C- categories for those years, although typically if I would give a season a C- in the post-World War II era, I’ll give it a C+ in the prewar era so it still scores 1 point. This applies to a lot of Le Mans class winners. While I don’t rate every major sports car class winner or even every overall winner in modern years, I will usually rate all Le Mans class winners in earlier, less competitive years, as long as they finished in the top ten overall in the race or something. Those drivers would typically score 1 point in either era if they didn’t win the race overall. I started this period in 1905 because 1905 was the first official IndyCar season and 1906 was the first French Grand Prix (aka the first race we would consider an official Grand Prix by today’s standards). For the first 11 years auto racing existed from 1894-1904, I only rate the top five drivers, giving them 10, 5, 3, 2, and 1 points. I think a couple drivers from this era need to be recognized, but probably only a handful or maybe two.
I do think I need to tweak this and maybe award more points for the 1930s since one of the things I have noticed is that a lot of ‘30s drivers feel underrated to me. I already wrote a column for Billy Winn a long time ago. He’s a driver I have regarded highly for a long time because he won 4 of his 14 IndyCar starts before dying in a crash shortly before his 29th birthday. As I already discussed when I rated him the 53rd best IndyCar driver of all time, all ten of his other starts were won by different drivers, meaning within the context of the races he dominated he was supremely dominant, but he doesn’t get the credit he deserves because his Indy 500 record was bad. He also has 51 confirmed AAA sprint car wins (although 11 of them came before there was an official points championship). Winn feels like a driver who needs to be a lock, but because of how few points I awarded to this era, he isn’t. I also think other ‘30s drivers like Tony Willman should be locks, and guys like Ernie Triplett and Bob Swanson should probably be on the right side of the bubble. If Chris Economaki really claimed Swanson was the best driver he’d ever seen, I think I need him but I currently have Triplett and Swanson in my near-miss category. I think some of the sports car drivers from this era that I currently have out like Tim Birkin probably need to be in too. This suggests to me I am underrating the ‘30s specifically and need to make an adjustment here. I don’t really think I’m underrating any of the previous decades though.
I consider performances in every discipline of motorsport: open wheel, rally, rallycross, stock cars, touring cars, sports cars, sprints, midgets, modifieds, drag racing, world land speed record holders (very important in my opinion through the ‘60s, not so much afterward), grassroots series. You name it, I’m covering it. I do have several blind spots. I know a lot of people are down on drag racing because they think it is 100% engineering skill and the driver doesn’t play a role. I get it and I disagree. In the pre-World War II era, so many of the world’s best drivers were chasing - and setting - world land speed records, including great Grand Prix drivers like Victor Hémery, Henry Segrave, and Malcolm Campbell (Campbell was a reprehensible human being though and I will absolutely be talking shit about his fascism when I get to him) and IndyCar stars like René Thomas and Ray Keech. Several top drivers died while trying to set land speed records like Frank Lockhart and Marshall Teague, and setting speed records was inextricably linked to the greater motorsports world in this era, and I consider drag racing to be the direct descendant of that and therefore these drivers should be included also. Granted, I do acknowledge that it probably takes less skill than circuit racing and those drivers will be docked in the circuit versatility category especially when I complete the ranking.
I have several important blind spots right now. The biggest one is probably desert truck racing. While I have all the Baja 1000 and Baja 500 winners noted on my master driver list, it really seems more disconnected to the greater motorsport world than any other discipline I can think of, even drag racing. Yes, there are drivers who made successful crossovers to (Parnelli Jones) or from (Rick Mears, Jimmie Johnson, Robby Gordon) the world of desert truck racing, but it feels like it’s a footnote for all those guys except maybe Gordon (only because he significantly underachieved his talent level in both his CART and NASCAR careers). I also am not impressed by the fact that it seems like there is so little competition that drivers can still be competitive into their 50s and 60s. Rob MacCachren won six of his seven Baja 1000s after the age of 49. I suspect most people would tell me MacCachren belongs on the list, but that fact makes me cringe and makes me think that the competition must have been some of the worst in the world anywhere. On the other hand, I’ve decided drag racing is important enough to list and senior citizens winning is also common there. I probably need to give more respect to desert truck racers, especially because I know MacCachren and Ivan Stewart and guys like that won a lot of titles. Mickey Thompson should probably be on too since I know the NHRA rated him one of its top 15 drag racers and then he also became a legendary desert truck racing driver and promoter. All these series are just so poorly documented I can’t even begin to wrap my head around them, and I guess I didn’t do my due diligence here. I probably need to do better with this scene.
My other lesser issues are with grassroots drivers, sports car drivers, and rally racers. I didn’t know all that much about grassroots racing (dirt and paved late model, sprint, and modified racing) until really recently (namely, the last few months). When I joined Auto Racing Research Associates recently, I went through every single one of the drivers they had archived and counted how many wins they had per season. Almost all the drivers they cover are late model, sprint, or modified drivers with minimal participation in national racing series. I decided to award an E grade to any driver with 50 or more grassroots wins a season, E- for 35-49, C+ for 25-34, C for 20-24, and C- for 15-19, but this might need tweaking. (I have significantly lower thresholds for drivers who compete in recognized regional tours though like all of Dick Trickle’s ASA/ARTGO seasons, which obviously had a lot deeper competition; these evaluations are really intended primarily for drivers who mostly just compete at local tracks or whatever.) There are a ton of drivers most people have never heard of with 100+ wins, especially if you get down to the grassroots level. At this level, it seems whether a driver gets properly recognized comes down to how much reporting there was in a given regional scene since a lot of these drivers’ wins were never properly recorded or archived, particularly if a track where they dominated went out of business.
For the record, the winningest grassroots driver that ARRA covered was Steve Kinser with 926 wins. That isn’t really a surprise. I was a bit surprised that Brett Hearn was second with 913. I actually knew who Hearn was, but literally because I grew up in Syracuse, no other reason. When I read the racing coverage in the local newspapers, the bustling northeastern dirt modified scene and its legends like Hearn, Bob McCreadie, Alan and Danny Johnson got a hell of a lot of press coverage locally, and all those guys have hundreds and hundreds of wins, but somehow it never occurred to me that they might belong on the list. Well, mea culpa. Dick Trickle’s supposed 1200 wins definitely seems to be incorrect because ARRA only came up with 741 - that’s still massive though. The winningest grassroots driver overall however is Shane Sabraski who has 1,019 confirmed wins and I bet if you don’t post on The Third Turn Discord you’ve never heard of him (although I have mentioned him here before). When I brought up Sabraski to the ARRA folks, they’d actually never heard of him. His region is the Upper Midwest while the ARRA guys mostly tracked drivers on the East Coast. If even elite-tier racing archivists haven’t heard of the guy who might be the winningest driver ever, I’ve got to imagine there are drivers I’ve never heard of who need to be on the list, and that will always get at me. My latest discovery was Dick Gaines just a couple weeks ago. I knew he was a Knoxville Nationals winner from the era before the World of Outlaws existed, but that was literally the only win I had for him on my master driver list. Then I started doing research for my recent Steve Kinser post and discovered “shit, Gaines needs to be on here.” He has an estimated 800 wins or something and seems to be valued by sprint car historians almost as highly as Kinser is, so I bumped him up and also Jan Opperman, another Knoxville Nationals winner who Gaines passed for his 1974 win there. Finally, if you’re wondering why Stewart Friesen and Jimmy Horton (who I know are considered to be jokes by ignorant NASCAR fans, and people in my circles really mocked Friesen a lot without understanding the full scope of his career) are tentatively on the list while say, Ron Hornaday, Jr. isn’t, Horton has 466 wins and Friesen 435 at last check, not far off Richie Evans’s 518. I know, I was shocked too. Granted, I do think grassroots drivers in the current era should be valued much less than grassroots drivers prior to the ‘90s. I do consider Trickle’s decision to race in the NASCAR Cup Series in 1989 a major turning point. He made his NASCAR move at that moment (just as he was beginning to fade) because that was the first moment that just competing in the Cup Series made you more money than barnstorming and rough-riding over a litany of regional series. As a result, I am super hesitant to include any minor league drivers who started in the ‘90s or later if they were not eventually Cup Series stars. I consider Mike Stefanik to be borderline and Doug Coby to be not even close. (This is also why, for instance, I consider Butch Lindley a lock and Randy LaJoie to be totally unworthy in this context.) Even their career win counts aren’t even close to Friesen, but I guess Friesen’s 400+ wins have to be acknowledged, even if he is a pretty mediocre truck driver.
I was able to pinpoint a lot of the grassroots drivers I missed through my participation on the Third Turn Discord in recent months. I asked Third Turn creator Timmy Quievryn to make me a list of all the drivers who had 100 or more confirmed wins on his site. Even that wasn’t complete as Timmy’s list seemed to be missing all the drivers who primarily competed in weekly series-type racing (Larry Phillips, etc…) because he simply did not have the individual races entered for all those series. Nonetheless, I already had entered all the weekly series drivers with 10+ wins in a season, so I’m good there. Two drivers who get a lot of press that I’m shocked to be snubbing are Jerry Cook and Hershel McGriff. If Cook really has the 342 wins he supposedly has, then I will make him a lock. I’ve been entirely unable to confirm that number though. According to the counts I obtained from The Third Turn at last count, Cook has 84 modified wins and 11 Late Model Sportsman wins. That’s all I was able to come up with, and he barely comes out to 100 overall. Then I started doing newspaper research and found that he really did only seem to win 3, 0, and 2 races in his first three title seasons. In his winless 1972 title season, a completely forgotten driver named Bugsy Stevens won 23 times and finished third in points; Stevens also won three consecutive titles with at least 54 wins, over twice the confirmed number of wins as Cook’s 23 across all six of his title seasons. It appears from what I have read in newspaper archives that Cook won his titles primarily because he entered far more races than any of his contemporaries, and as we know, all of NASCAR’s points systems have always been participation trophies that awarded way more for even a mid-pack finish than not showing up at all. I expected to make him a lock, but this convinced me he doesn’t deserve it. The only reasons he made the NASCAR Hall of Fame in my opinion are because of his service as a NASCAR official after his retirement and his supposed “rivalry” with Richie Evans. Saying 518-time winner Evans had a “rivalry” with Cook is like saying Jimmie Johnson had a rivalry with Clint Bowyer. Yeah, they were there at the same time, but no. As for McGriff, it’s a stronger case but the problem here is that he had a couple decade-long hiatuses where he hardly raced at all. While his longevity was impressive, he spent a lot of what should have been his best seasons either not racing or hardly racing at all. While it’s kind of amazing that he won the Winston West title at the age of 58, he was not exactly competing against the likes of Ray Elder and Jack McCoy, who had far more impressive West Series records in their heyday. In McGriff’s 1986 championship season, his competition was the juggernaut that was Chad Little. Cook and McGriff are the two most overrated drivers in NASCAR history.
Sports car drivers remain a big issue for me, because it can be really hard to tell which driver is doing the work on a multi-driver sports car team. Particularly in the years where two drivers have a successful partnership, it’s not hard for an elite driver to carry a more mediocre talent, as we saw for instance with Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas’s string of Grand-Am titles. Does Rojas deserve it? I honestly couldn’t tell you yet. It’s easy with the sports car drivers who at least had major wins in open wheel or touring car or single-driver sports car series like Can-Am or Trans-Am or Porsche Supercup. If somebody was a prolific winner in any of those kind of series and in multi-driver endurance sports car racing, obviously they were great. But it gets murkier and more nebulous for drivers if they only competed in multi-driver series. Starting in the early-to-mid 2010s it’s doable, since lap time and leader data are available for all post-merger IMSA seasons and all WEC seasons, but finding out which drivers were doing the work and which were along for the ride becomes way, way harder in earlier decades. I’ve started buying all the books recapping the history of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The 2010-2019 book hasn’t been released yet, but I finished reading the 2000-2009 book and just started the 1990-1999 book. These will probably help me in some ways and give me the narrative detail I need to decide who to advance among the sports car bubble drivers and who to drop, but I’m not even close to finished with that process yet, and I’m sure I’ll pick up things along the way. After reading about how Mark Blundell became the then-youngest Le Mans polesitter ever in 1990 and won the pole by six seconds, that could be enough to swing him from the near miss category to the bubble. I’m sure I’ll make plenty of revisions like that as I continue to go through these books.
As for rally drivers, this is difficult because many of the top rally drivers prior to the 2000s competed in a lot of domestic/national championships and didn’t compete in the World Rally Championship much. Even the WRC championship contenders rarely ran the full schedule until the ‘90s and cherrypicked races. Deciding which drivers to include will depend largely on evaluating the strength of competition, which varied from rally to rally as certain rallies attracted much larger fields and much more of the top competitors than others, and I suspect a lot more needs to be calculated here, particularly in terms of determining which of the minor league rally drivers with long strings of titles in their national championships are worth including and which are not (and there are a lot). I do intend to make a rally drivers’ model and I started work on this maybe a year or two ago and went through all the champions and all the drivers with last names starting with A and some of the B’s, but I wasn’t even close. That will probably be one of the last parts of this project. Hopefully, if I complete a rally model to go along with my already existing open wheel, stock car, and touring car models, I’ll begin to have this nailed down.
Based on my current research, I have 755 locks, 451 bubble drivers, and 252 near miss drivers. As I’ve said, a number of drivers will likely drop once I remove the excess drivers in typically modern years, while I suspect I should award more points to the ‘30s, which will cause drivers from that era to rise. I think 1,206 is a good number of drivers to start with. This obviously excludes current drivers and rising stars unless I think they have already done enough to make the bubble (like Kyle Kirkwood for instance). I have a separate list of modern drivers who have 221 modern drivers who have not yet scored 14 points. I have not gone through all of them yet, and I probably should soon. This list is only considering races through the 2025 season, nothing this year yet. That’s why for instance Kimi Antonelli is nowhere to be seen. I know he’s dominating the current F1 season, but he only had five career points through last year. If I rank him 4th or higher globally this year (which seems likely as of now, but if he tanks like Oscar Piastri did last year, I might not), he will score 20 points and become a lock. The other guy you could argue probably should be a lock already is Tyler Reddick. He had 19 points through last year so he was clearly already safe since 1,000th place even now is 17 points. Reddick will become a lock if I rate him in the top 25 and give him an E this season. “If season grades were awarded now”, I absolutely would. But they are not and he could still tank. But the odds of him not being a lock by the time I’m done are obviously infinitesimal. Obviously guys like Christian Lundgaard, David Malukas, Chris Buescher, Chase Briscoe, Carson Hocevar, Connor Zilisch, Corey Heim, Oliver Bearman, Isack Hadjar, Liam Lawson, Taylor Barnard, Laurin Heinrich, Matt Payne, Ryan Wood, etc… will likely work their way into contention by the time I finish and many of them should make the list, but they all need to do more for sure. Alex Bowman looks like he’s not gonna make it and he’ll probably be the winningest Cup Series driver I snub, which is understandable considering he’s driving for Hendrick.
Generally, I prefer to rate for dominance over consistency and/or longevity. I think a lot of other historians overrate drivers who entered a lot of races. It seems like older historians especially think of racing careers like military service, where drivers should be somehow rewarded just for putting in a lot of time. I notice this most with bad IndyCar historians. Drivers who made a lot of starts in the Indy 500 but hardly did anything in them like Cliff Bergere, Ralph Hepburn, and Chet Miller somehow got inducted to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Hall of Fame just for being likable guys who were around a long time I guess. All those guys also made it on to the original list of 100 from which the Indy 500’s Greatest 33 were selected while somehow Kenny Bräck didn’t. Get real if you think any of those drivers were better than Bräck. (Similarly, Dave Marcis will be one of my easiest cuts from the bubble…)
Here are the lists as they stand right now. Please let me know if there are any historic drivers (excluding active ones) who you feel should be moved up or down or any drivers who I have overlooked entirely who should be on the list. I suspect a lot of people would say Wendell Scott, but I would argue he is easily top 1,000 in importance but not in talent; I think NASCAR made the correct decision to induct him into the Hall of Fame as a rebuke to their history of institutional racism, but they also were correct to leave him off the 75 Greatest Drivers list, since I don’t think the numbers were there even relative to the other independents of that period like James Hylton and Elmo Langley, and I don’t think Langley is close either. I am also choosing to ignore morality here. I know on one of my previous Discords, a lot of people were pushing to rank Scott over Jack Smith (the driver most infamous for being racist towards Scott) and Speedy Thompson (who intentionally caused Herb Thomas’s near-fatal crash by team orders), and I get it. But I’m a “separate the artist from the art” person and I think that applies here too. Smith and Thompson were clearly better drivers than Scott, albeit substantially worse people. I mean Smith was hardly the only racist driver of his time and plenty of top drivers have wrecked people intentionally, even if it doesn’t usually result in injuries. Jacques Villeneuve was a Jeffrey Epstein contact and lots of people online argue Ayrton Senna was a pedophile. Where do I draw the line here? I’ve decided not to, although I will still talk shit about drivers who I include if I feel they deserve it, as I already did for Thompson and Al Unser, Jr. I feel that is the correct compromise.
