Of the 58 winners that's all that you could come up with, something that won 37 years back?

I'd be keen to hear from you based on the criteria outlined by Wheels, what car you believe based on your driving experience of it should have won.
Not the one model either, but the range of that car.

Not sure this was a serious comment but I'll bite.
Too many factors in car purchases. Price, biases, marketing and the customer themselves. Top selling car doesn't mean the best.

Racing driver rating is the championship itself. Who is consistent across all disciplines of racing for the season, not just being fast for one lap.
