Ambrose number one

Fixed the link for ya :)

Anyway...he is a dick, but I have to admit - he sure as hell can drive. I still wouldn't say he's "the best of the best" though.

Don't take me the wrong way he is a good, maybe great driver,... greatest ever??? I think not, especially never winning at Bathurst.

Ahhhh NO.

On purely championships and round wins it would have to go to Scaife. (I don't particularly like the guy but the records speak for themselves). What are other peoples nominations?

Note it's V8SC era only and does not include Group A and earlier.

For me, it would have to be Mark Skaife. Multiple Bathurst winner, multiple championship winner, most round wins. Need i say more? In his last couple of years he obviously faded a bit, but i believe that was due to what was going on behind the scenes with Tom Walkinshaw. In the endurance events he is still showing he can drive a car and still be competitive, had he got rid of all the pressure on his shoulders before he retired he had more left in him IMO.

He would be closely followed by Craig Lowndes though.

I lol'd when i saw it in the mag. Infact i was almost in tears thinking it was april fools in september haha. Then i saw they were serious.

Ambrose is an awesome driver, the best, close, but not quite (leaves the series when his teammate stole his opportunity at a hatrick of championships).


In regards to the comments of him putting the car on pole his first race, winning your first year like lowndes is a greater achievment.
Have to say skaife is the greatest (and continues to prove it with last years bathurst result, in a team that wasn't considered anything special...)

The only other person I can think of is Lowndes, 3 in a row at bathurst is no mean feat and has been pretty consistant.
