In a few years, I suspect that Gilles Villeneuve will be right up with MS again in the popularity stakes.

The most popular by quite a margin, and the best by even bigger margin. The Greatest

What is popularity anyway? Do they go on streets and ask people, who is the first F1 driver who comes into their minds? It's logical that they maybe only know Schumacher because he gets talked about so often - wait 25 years and he's not nearly as popular as he's now.
And you really can't say who's the most popular Ferrari driver ever. To get to know who is the most popular Ferrari driver ever, polls should have been made all the time, at least every year and then when you take time to study the results, then you can come to the final conclusion................................................... ..................................................

But these polls are all affected by the context in which they were conducted, both with time and media glorification.
In 25 years, probably both of them will the the favourite ever driver for the romantics, but by that time neither of them will be topping the polls of popularity I'm pretty sure.
So, like all polls, this one just reflects the modern context it was taken (including media glorification) so I'm inclined to think that it doesnt mean too much.
