I've got more than one.\nFernando Alonso for his Drivers' Championship won when he was barely 24 years' old.\nAyrton Senna for the fact that, although he won only 3 Drivers' Titles, he should have won more, but fierce competition and a tragic accident (Tamburello turn, Imola, 1st May 1994) prevented this.\nJuan-Manuel Fangio for winning 5 Drivers' Championships in the tough early days of F1 and for setting a record that was to last for almost 50 years.\n\nI would have also put Michael Schumacher on the list if I hadn't been disgusted by some of his dirty tricks.

Ya, I saw it. It was really very interesting race. Last year Alonso had held Schumi for nearly last 12-18 laps at second position and finally won the race. But this year the ball moved in Schumi's court and he held alonso second to grab his first victory of the season.

Perhaps not the best F1 race ever, but one of my favourites is the 1993 European Grand Prix at Donington. It was a `wet' race and Ayrton Senna started from fourth on the grid but quickly got to the front and went on to win the race.\nThere was a bit of an anomaly with the fastest lap. Because of the track layout, it was a bit shorter going through pit lane and on the 57th lap, Senna came in for a pit stop, but the McLaren team wasn't ready, so he continued on and back onto the track (there was no pit speed limit at that time) and his time of 1:18.029 turned out to be the fastest lap of the race.\nThe Donington facilities weren't the best I've been to (the media centre was in a tent, but my laptop, connected to British Telecom, worked perfectly) and I had a lot of mud to scrape off my boots, but the race was enjoyable.\nAlso the 1989 Brazilian Grand Prix, not because Nigel Mansell won the race, but because I saw the great Juan Manual Fangio drive some exhibition laps around the Jacarapagua circuit in one of his old F1 cars.

If you went into other motorsports championships before asking this question, you could have chances. After all, look at examples, like Fernando Alonso or Nico Rosberg. Alonso started in Formula 1 in 2001, when he was just around 19 or 20, and Nico this season, and he is also around 20. But if you intend to get to F1 without many races before that, you should do the same as Kimi Raikkonen(he only raced 23 times in other championships before going in F1).

Ya, I too agree u that this guy don't manage things well. Infact Bernie ecclestone is the real manager of f1.Mosely didn't play any key role after the indianapolis fiasco where the fans expected him to do something. And anyway i he managed things well the other teams would not have taken a decision to start a different championship in 2008.

Alonso, without a doubt. The Renaults are the best cars out there at the moment. If McLaren could get their act together, Kimi Raikkonnen would have a shot.

Michael Schumacher has got to be the greatest.  What he did last Sunday in Germany was amazing.  The way he can read a race, the other competitors and the weather is phenomenal.

It's Schumacher for now\nbut Alonso will be better than him in a few years

Yep. I agree it has to be the technical side of it. But for a newbie? It would be that F1 is the pinnacle of motor sport and a true World Championship (literally) with races on specifically designed tracks (not ovals) from China to Monaco to Germany.

Pas de Mc Laren mais de son fantastique pilote tres professionnel venant du froid mais au sang chaud: Kimi RAIKKONEN qui merite vraiment de devenir champion du monde en 2007 , meme s'il sera pilote Ferrari.
