#3 Juan Manuel Fangio

Juan Manuel Fangio Warming Up Race Car
The early legend of Fangio

The man with the highest percentage of wins ever in F1 with 24 wins in only 52 races, nearly 50%, 5 world titles, only bettered by Schumacher is Juan Manuel Fangio.

Other records include the highest percentage of poles, with 29 in 52, the most seasons with the most poles, highest percentage podiums, and the oldest to do a grand slam in a race weekend (pole, win and fastest lap).

He was the man before Senna or Schumacher who everyone would compare to as the standard bearer. He was the original untouchable one and winning the World Championship with 4 different constructors, which I cannot see happening again in a long time.

Therefore he is without a doubt on this monument.
