This video came across my YouTube feed and I thought it was pretty interesting. An interviewer asks Tony Stewart who his Mount Rushmore of drivers are. His first two are spot on, but I think I would replace John Force with Jimmy Johnson or Richard Petty and the fourth would be Lewis Hamilon Ayrton Senna or Michael Schumacher.

Who are the greatest four drivers of all time?

Agreed, he would probably have 10 championships had he not died in '94.  Watching him drive in the rain at Monte Carlo sends chills up my spine.

I'm biased to the old drivers driving amazing cars.

Mario Andretti won across the race car spectrum but Formula 1 is where he got a lot of fame.

Being a graduate of the Skip Barber Formula Racing School, I should probably be on that list.

Stupid or not Jimmy Johnson winning five championships in a row has to put him up there. In my opinion you can't put any drag racer on the list, even as wildly successful as Bob Glidden or John Force were. They just can't be named before any F1/NASCAR/Indy Car champion.

AJ Foyt

Won NASCAR and Indy Car.  Even ran a few F1 races.

Only driver to win the Indianapolis 500 (four times), the Daytona 500, the 24 Hours of Daytona, the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the 12 Hours of Sebring

Not a huge fan but I respect what he did.

Old school racers raced when a few drivers died in a season.  Doesn't necessarily make them the best but damn balls of steel.
