I think of Teo as the dominate driver in the 1981 Can Am, but he finished 2nd in points to Geoff Brabham despite having 4 wins to Geoff's two.

Cristiano Da Matta was perhaps the last Indycar guy to do ok in F1. Didn't he even lead the 03 British GP in the Toyota for a few laps?? Think he got a rough deal from Cologne overall.
Bourdais showed flashes with Toro Rosso but has accidents and a lot of bad luck.
