#1 Tony Brooks
Tony Brooks or the "racing dentist" is a British former racing driver. He was a very successful driver having won the 1957 1000 km Nürburgring and the 1958 RAC Tourist Trophy. His Formula 1 record was equally impressive; he came very close to winning the title two times in 1958 and again in 1959 finishing third and second respectively.

Brooks was the first British driver to win an F1 race after 32 years. Jack Brabham, Tony Brooks, and Stirling Moss were all in contention to win the title in the last race of the 1959 season. Brabham and Brooks had to battle it out for the title as Moss retired early into the race.
Brabham was leading the race, but he ran out of fuel just 400 yards from the finish line. Brooks finished the race in the third place, but it was not enough to earn him the title as Brabham finished fourth by pushing his car over the finish line and won by a margin a few points.
