I guess no one is the number one rookie because all have (probably) been 'shown up' at one point in their first year.

Secondly I hardly think Senna was 'shown up' at Monaco even if you do make the assumption that Bellof would have won.

Following that logic, we can rub out TGF in 1992 as he ran a race for Jordan at Spa in '91 going out on lap one and the remainder of that season at Bennetton.

Damon and Giancarlo had already raced as well.

How about Raikkonen? Frentzen, holding Sauber together in '94? Bellof and Brundle? Tony Brise - just a couple of races but gawd... he lapped his team-mate! Who was Alan Jones.

Even considering that he was in a terrific car, I'd have to vote for Jacques. Mightn't be popular with everyone here, but coming so close to winning the championship in Year 1 is pretty amazing. An incredibly impressive debut...
