Stirling Moss, who is often regarded as the greatest driver never to win the World Championship, came close to winning the title not twice but seven times. He finished as the runner-up four times and finished third three times.

Apart from the Formula One World Championship, his trophy cabinet includes victories in other motorsport events, as he won 212 of the 529 races he participated in throughout his career.

Moss was inducted into the International Motorsports Hall of Fame in 1990, and FIA gave him the FIA gold medal in recognition of his outstanding contribution to motorsport, in 2006.
