To be honest, third place in this top 5 was between Nigel Mansell and Graham Hill.

Yes, Hill won one more world championship than Mansell by picking up two driver's titles but at the same time, Mansell won more races in his F1 career.

Mansell won a whopping total of 31 races while Hill secured 14.

Of course, the more advanced years of F1 has hosted more races as this season there is 21 races filling up the Grand Prix calendar.

But Mansell displayed some top quality racing in his final two years in F1, on top of already being in the sport for nearly 15 years.

He saved the best til last when he finally won his first and only world championship in 1992 for Williams.

In his championship winning season, Mansell won the first five races of the calendar before adding four more race wins later on in the season.
