Are Sportscar Drivers better than F1 Drivers ?
This might have been covered before, but having just seen the Mid Ohio ALM on Eurosport, I do wonder.
Sportscar drivers have to content with huge speed differances, the top Audi's almost at F1 speeds coming up on a 911. Or a 911 driver allowing enough space for an Audi, Bentley or Panoz to pass. Sports drivers also endure about twice the race lenth of the F1 lads. I can only think of 1 driver who combined the two with success, J Ickx, others like Brundle, G Hill have either been good at one or the other. Looks like Irvine maybe out of F1, seem to recall he was quite handy in the Toyota at Le Mans. What do you all think ? Simon |
