Default Senna voted the world's best driver

Ayrton Senna has received the ultimate accolade in being voted the greatest Formula One driver of all time in a remarkable poll.

The survey, conducted by Autosport magazine, canvassed the views of 217 world championship drivers with 9194 starts and 270 victories between them.

Seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, one of those polled, had to settle for second place behind three-time winner Senna, with five-time champion Juan Manuel Fangio in third.

Each driver, which also included the earliest surviving grand prix winner in Jose Froilan Gonzalez and the oldest living F1 driver in 98-year-old Paul Pietsch, was asked for their top 10 greatest.

Overall, there are three Britons in the top 10, with Jim Clark, Sir Jackie Stewart and Stirling Moss in fifth, sixth and eighth places respectively.

Nigel Mansell comes in at number 11, with Britain's last two world champions in Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button 17th and 30th respectively.

Like they say nothing like going off while you are at your heights to immortalize you. My order of preference would have been the other way around I guess
