#3 Jim Clark
Jim Clark only ever drove with Team Lotus during his nine-year-long Formula One stint. He was widely renowned for his smooth driving and was deemed one of the fastest ever.
A case in point for his skill would be the 1963 Belgian Grand Prix where he started way back in the eighth position and then bettered all seven racers ahead of him to claim victory.
The two-time world champion has accounted for 11 hat-tricks in his 72 race career, a remarkable feat in itself. His first hat-trick came during the 1962 British Grand Prix. The Lotus 25 driver dominated the last grand prix held at Aintree from start to finish.
He grabbed his final hat-trick in the South African Grand Prix of 1968, the same year as his tragic death in a Formula Two crash. He had all the makings of a winner and he would always be acclaimed as an all-time great.
