Discussing the Formula 1 greats involves a lot of personal opinions, but Alain Prost thinks his career definitely goes under the radar.
As a four-time World Champion with 51 race wins to his name, Prost is without doubt one of the greatest talents Formula 1 has ever seen.
But when people are having that debate about the legends, Prost feels his career is often underrated.
“I’ve been asked for 40 years who the best driver ever is! I have never replied because I wonder if I would have been as good as [Juan Manuel] Fangio driving his car, for example. He was the best of his generation, like I was with Ayrton [Senna], like Michael Schumacher in his time or Lewis Hamilton today,” he told Le Figaro.
