| 13. Eddie Irvine and Heinz-Harald Frentzen - Eddie is good, but he's not worth what Jaguar is paying him. Frentzen is also good, but he doesn't have a ride for 2002. My suggestion?... Jaguar should fire Irvine and hire Frentzen at half the cost. |
| DRIVER RANKINGS |
| A highly scientific ranking of the world's best racing drivers. |
| ____________________________________________________________________________________________ |
 |
| 15. Giancarlo Fisichella - A friend of mine told me Fisichella is the best driver if you're playing Formula 1 on Playstation. That may be so, but I'm still ranking him 15th. |
 |
| 16. Gil DeFerran and Helio Castroneves - Last year's Indianapolis 500 confirmed the talent differential between the two competing Indycar series. Expect one of these two Penske drivers, freshly transferred from CART, to win the IRL championship in 2002. |
 |
| 18. Kenny Brack - With the departure of Penske to the IRL, he's CART's best remaining driver. Expect him to win a championship in 2002 with a more focused Bobby Rahal guiding the team. However, CART has a habit of pulling drivers I've never heard of out of South America, so my prediction is probably wrong. |
 |
| 19. Olivier Panis - Consistently qualified close to teammate Villeneuves in 2001, but the race performance wasn't all that impressive. |
