I will choose Enzo Ferrari. A few days ago I saw a mini-serie of him and I was impressed. His passion for this sport, his perseverance, his category he was really fantastic!He made the better and most mystic F1 Team.

What do you think?

Voted for Neubauer...Just seen a documentary on 1950s racing,and he was the man,no doubt...

I'd vote for Enzo,but some of his thoughts weren't quite bright...

I voted for Neubauer too, he was a pioneer then he created many simbols and tactics in the 30's to communicate with his drivers.

Colin and Enzo were the developers and the leaders and to me, clearly ahead of Ron and Frank.

Although one shouldn't forget about Brabham...WC with his own team...The only driver in history to achieve that.

I voted for the legendary Neubauer ,,, ..........
He is the guy who has revolutionised the Motorsport in Pre war times and later on brought Pit professionalism to fore after War Grand Prixs.......
I watched an One Hour Programme on History Channel about Racing Machines and How Mercedes and Neubauer revolutionised the Sport then ....
It was also mentioned that British MI 6 stole the blueprints of German Racing Cars after war and there was a file which was named as the " Secrets of German Racing Cars Success" and Britishers used those Blueprints For BRM team which flopped miserably and Commentator said that the "reason for BRM to FLOP was that they didnt have a Neubauer to manage the team " ........

you're talking about a man who was born at the end of the 19th century...


statements like "Aerodynamics are for the ones that can't build powerful engines" are the reason why my vote goes to Enzo Ferrari.

Pure passion

That reminds me of a guy named Bill Gates, who once said sound and graphics (now known as Multimedia) would never be important features in a computer! *

"Putting the engine behind the driver is like a cart pulling the horse?"

Passionate, perhaps, but probably too resistant to change to make an effective team manager.

I vote for Brabham, who not only took a hands-on approach to designing his cars, but also driving, and winning in them, too.
