Arguably the two greatest Scottish (or shall we say British?) Grand Prix drivers of all time. I always rated Sir Jackie higher but was always wondering how others see them in comparison.

 

In your view, which one of them was the faster, which was the more complete package? Which one of them was the better in the wet or standing the pressure from others chasing them? Who was more prone to errors, who had more ability for setting up their cars and understanding the technological details of the sport? Who had to outdrive their cars more often, who had worse luck? Who had more impressive or memorable drives, which one was stronger in wheel to wheel racing or fighting through the field?

 

I am very much interested in your opinions, please write away :)
