Picking the best in any sport is difficult. Times change. Perceptions alter. Nostalgia plays tricks. The here and now is uniquely vivid.
In motor racing, the task is even harder. While a football is still essentially a football (if made of different materials), Formula One divides between the era of immediate peril and one of more distant peril. It is still dangerous and always will be but the change confuses accurate assessment between one era and another.
It is a personal list. Forgive me.
