If that is the case then:

Osterreichring 13 (+1)

-----------------
Zandvoort 0 (-1)

So the Osterreichring is the most awesome circuit in the last 25 years then.

I think i'd agree with that. Didn't always produce the best races but what a beautiful circuit it was. Watching Rosberg on the absolute limit on the final lap in 1982 is just fantastic.



Oh yeah.

21. Indianapolis Road Course, Indiana, USA
22. Phoenix, Arizona, USA
23. Magny-Cours, France
24. Dallas, Texas, USA


A fair list although I really don't agree about some of the picks.
For instance Brands Hatch: might have been a fun little circuit, but I can't remember an epic race, let alone much passing. Also, Imola, the version before 1995 was epic, and it got itself only in 15th place. And finally, Detroit should be waaaaaaaaay higher up the boards, like the top 5 at least.

Anyway, any ideas for the next? :)

Maybe the most epic F1-track ever? In it's original layout

Avus, Nordscleiffe, the original Spa-Franchorchamps, Mont Jujich, Rouen, Silverstone, Monza with oval...etc...

How's about a list of non-champions so we can vote for the greatest driver never to pick up an F1 crown?

I believe Jean Alesi, Chris Amon and Heinz-Harald Frentzen would deserve a place there as well. But the list is long already.

I like this one, just to keep in into the circuits. But it's hard to judge what's the original layout I thing.
Imola was different in its original layout as well, but it was never raced with F1 for example.

Perhaps a "best F1 tracks until 1984"? We've had the last 25 years at this quiz, now the first 35 years could be possible. It could be splitted in 2 seperated quizzes as well, I don't know the amount of tracks.

The original F1-layout of course. The one that was used in the track's first grand prix. Monza had the oval, Silverstone was on the landing strips, Avus was looooong and Nordschleiffe didn't have the stadium.

Or we could use the "best layout of every track". For Imola and Hockenheim it would be the 80's layout.

I suggest removing Bellof and Brise. There are other drivers too who died early, but at least they had chance to fight on top cars unlike those two.

Here's the listing who have been in top 3 of the championship but never won a title
Luigi Fagioli
Jose Froilan Gonzalez
Piero Taruffi
Stirling Moss
Eugenio Castellotti
Peter Collins
Luigi Musso
Tony Brooks
Bruce McLaren
Wolfgang von Trips
Richie Ginther
Jacky Ickx
Clay Regazzoni
Ronnie Peterson
Francois Cevert
Carlos Reutemann
Gilles Villeneuve
Didier Pironi
John Watson
Rene Arnoux
Elio de Angelis
Michele Alboreto
Riccardo Patrese
David Coulthard
Heinz-Harald Frentzen
Eddie Irvine
Rubens Barrichello*
Juan Pablo Montoya
Jenson Button*
Felipe Massa*

A total of 30 drivers of which three are active. Removing them it would be 27.
