I was a little kid when he won my home rally with the RX-7. I looked at this car in amazement, knowing that somewhere there must be some better world:

Drivers from #40 to #31
I'd say all these drivers are worthy, but the order... Auriol #32 and behind Mikkelsen? Still missing drivers like Delecour, Gardemeister and Duval, are they going to rank better than Auriol and Munari?
I know it's not written by a journalist, but still :D

I don't understand how you can complain when it's a voting.

Some time ago I created this table where WRC drivers are sorted by giving points for certain achievements: starting a WRC rally, winning a stage, getting a podium, winning, winning in more than one brand of car, winning the title, winning a title in more than one brand of car. And then those are weighed with some factors and we get a total score that looks like this:

Not all drivers are included automatically. Let me know if someone is missing and should be added.

I literally wrote that I know it's not written by a journalist. Making fun of a silly ranking is not complaining.

I find it strange that they are publishing a top 50 list when we were allowed to vote for three top drivers. I would like to know how many votes Ingvar Carlsson received, how many people think he is in all time top 3? Releasing the top 10 would have been enough.

Some people vote for their favourite driver, some to troll (see best WRCar poll).

Delecour is there, at position #30, behind... Kenjiro Shinozuka:

What is the story about his road accident in a Ferrari F40?
