If you read Dymocks book then he won the same as Prost over a much shorter time, in less GPs.

Clark did everything... BTCC, Indy, F1, F2 etc... all at the same time but in many of the events he drove in, the opposition was significantly below what one would expect of F1 calibre... not just in terms of the drivers but also in terms of the cars. There's no doubting that Clark was an incredible pilot but we need to bear in mind what he was up against when he was racking many of his victories up.
