Lewis has nothing to do with Alonso being just 2 time world champion but the cars Alonso drove during his prime. As Adrian Newey said, his only regret in F1 is not having worked with Alonso. He explained in his book that him and Horner met with Alonso and his manager several times but Alonso always ended up declining their offers hoping a championship with Ferrari.

Alain Prost. Here's why: 1980 - John Watson, a good benchmark for a rookie driver, guy who wasn't exactly a GOAT material but was still a top class driver; 1981-1982 - Rene Arnoux, top of the midfield driver and another good benchmark driver; 1983 - Cheever, probably the weakest of all Prost's teammates, still a high midfield driver at the time; 1984-1985 - Lauda, enough said; 1986 - Rosberg, wasn't at his peak anymore but still wasn't someone that could be easily written off; 1987 - Johansson, basically Nick Heidfeld of the 1980s, Prost's second weakest teammate but still far from slouch; 1988-1989 - Senna, enough said; 1990 - Mansell, enough said; 1991 - Alesi, rising star of the period and was considered championship winning material by many (that didn't age well); 1993 - Hill, guy who managed to jump into top car in his second season and perform like a beast. Only teammates Prost lost to were Watson, Lauda (once) and Senna (once). In case of former, he was a rookie that year so it can be "excused". In case of latter two, however, both were champions and Prost both times finished 2nd in the championship with only few points behind them. Professor deserves a lot more appreciation.

To others, both would be in it. Horses for courses and all that. Neither would I argue about including Graham Hill - but then I've always been an unashamed Damon fangirl - and Mario Andretti.) The listed 10 were/are all outstanding, and if we could get a time machine, put them in identical cars - say at the peak of their powers (though we'd have to go forward in time to work out when that will be for Max lol) - I reckon we could have a full season with all fighting for the championship throughout.

Great video. As for Prost being a hypothetic 8 time world champ with number 2 teammates... he would be a 7 time world champ if modern points system was used back then. Also Alonso would have beaten Hamilton in 2007. In general, thinking about how much the points system influenced F1's history, it would be an interesting topic for a video. Maybe you could try to make it more optimal or look into giving out points further down the grid. Just an idea tho.

Awesomely interesting video

excelent video. Would be genuinly interesting to see what happens when and if Max Verstapphen comes up against a title winning teammate in F1, my guess is he would be able to be them but would love to find out

absolutely, great posting - and great analysis about Lews - if lewis had bottas level teammates would have won against button and rosberg. Plus, if Verstappen didn't have Checo as a teammate (or if Lewis had a Checo level driver - bottas is greater than checo), for sure the 2021 season would have been closer.

JB is criminally underrated and I used to be one of the people criminally underrating him, until I went back and watched the 2003-2020 seasons multiple times and watching the 2005-2013 seasons at least 10 times. Button’s biggest weakness is that he tended to lose motivation when the car sucked. It’s why he sometimes looked quite average when he was Barrichello’s teammate at Honda. Button seemed over it and Barrichello was trying really hard.

Very true. Alain Prost was a beast back in the day. He was unlucky that the point scoring system didnt favour consitent drivers. Meaning drivers who crashed, their point losses didnt count as much.

A VIP fact regarding the famous 2007 Alonso/Hamilton points tie is that Lewis got thousands-and-thousands of miles worth of testing in the MP4-22 vs Alonso only got a fraction as much time. I believe all the super stars of the sport have shown that you’re just as fast in your rookie season as you are a few seasons later with the main difference being that you a develop a little better race craft and maybe learn how to communicate better with the engineers.

As soon as I saw this video on my feed I immediately thought of Prost, other than René Arnoux, iirc every single one of his teammates have been champions, and fierce competitors as well.

Aldas claims he did research and couldnt find a video on the subject, but if he actually did he would of come across Mr V's Garage video from months ago titled "I watched EVERY SEASON of F1 and worked out the GOAT is..." that has 125k views about this very topic where he actually put in the work.

Something about Button that often goes overlooked imo is his super smooth driving style and Prost-style approach to race weekends. Mechanical DNFs aren't just a matter of bad luck, it shouldn't be surprising that the driver with the gentler touch had far fewer breakdowns in those tissue delicate Mclarens and thus was able to match Lewis' points haul in 2010 and 2012, and beat Lewis and Fernando one year each, despite "lacking pace".

Very good video

Prost's run of quality team mates was absolutely insane, only LH is in anything like the same bracket.

I cannot hear "equal machinery" without giggle

Haven't watched yet but first thought was Alain Prost, going up against the likes of Lauda, Senna, Mansell and Hill throughout his career. Then i thought a bit longer and there's a couple of Ferrari Brazilians who come to mind. Felipe Massa had to deal with Schumacher, then Raikkonen, then Alonso all in a row, although he did have Stroll at the end go ease him out. Barrichello also had Schumacher for five of his seven world titles, and then Button for his one too. Is Barrichello the best number two driver of all time? Statistically he might just be. Would be an interesting topic for a video I think.

A small correction, at the time of his 4th championship, Prost was still behind Fangio who already had 5 championships.

Mansell - team mates with Andretti, de Angelis (could have been champion had he survived), Rosberg, Piquet, Prost, Hill, Hakkinen, and behind all them Patrese and Berger who both won multiple races. He avoided having equal partners over the second half of his career after being on the receiving end of second best treatment compared to Piquet and Prost - 80s and early 90s teams often put more resources into the No.1 car and driver and the second one broke down a lot more often. Prost had number one status against virtually all team mates, and McLaren were basically the only team of that era that managed to run two equally good cars.

@Mark-zk3gu

Prost never once had number 1 status. He did however have number 2 status to Lauda in 1984

If two drivers can enter the last race of the year level on points, its not impossible for their to be a half point difference in the final drivers standings. It is exceedingly unlikely with every race they add to the calendar but not impossible.

I really think the Vetel Webber combination should have a least got a mention - as per the title who had the hardest team mates

This is what I mean. Both Senna and Prost could have had over 5 WDCs if it weren’t for each other basically

0:41 i remember a more recent version of this

Mick Schumacher 100%, imagine having to be Mazepins teammate 💀

I would say it's a tie up between Prost and Hamilton. Prost had more world champion teammates, but he did lost convincingly to Senna (I say convincingly despite popular belief saying that it was tight, all you need to know is their h2h stats, and the fact that Prost ran away from Senna) and most of his world champions teammate have passed their primes. Hamilton have slightly less world champion teammates, but they are all in their prime age. Moreover, one of them was the absolute all time legend Fernando Alonso, and Hamilton beat him in his rookie season. People can discredit Hamilton all they want, but having the pace to put him in the position to beat an all time legend in his rookie season is a feat that is most likely never repeated again. Lastly, Hamilton have never been beaten convincingly so far. Alonso was his closest match, and even then it was against rookie Hamilton. Not a big fan of Hamilton, but he definitely is the best driver since Senna.

I have seen this topic been discussed before but mainly in comment sections etc.

Senna seem like he should be up there but if it's very little I still think it counts even if little was preformed Senna has race with at least 3 world champions. even though his teammates were young in his carrier he really pushed the limit to be better than everybody although Damon Hill's career with Senna was short it was something he was building up to maybe challenge Senna for the title if he lived.

I’ve always said that Lewis and Prost are the two greatest formula 1 drivers of all time. This video adds more proof! Thanks Aldas!

nigel is a briliant driver, his major downfall was his car didn't work most of the time but when it worked he did well

It's funny how people claim Hamilton had 3 champions as teammates... When one of them became a champion AS HIS TEAMMATE on a field where the only thing he had to beat was the other side of the garage. Prost for me had the hardest teammates, and IMO is the best performer against them in the history of the sport. He gets shadowed by Senna's brilliance, but Prost IMO was just as good or arguably better than him. In 1988, if not for the ridiculous points system where only the best 10 or 11 finishes counted, Prost would've actually beat Senna. Prost was a very consistent driver, not as fast as Senna over 1 lap, but had race pace and was less mistake prone than Senna.

I think Hamilton has, 3 world championship team mates and Russell who dominated the junior ranks but he can still go toe to toe with in his late 30s!

It is common for people to dump on Prost because he was Senna's adversary and Senna is all but worshipped as a god among F1 fans (including myself). However, what is not often celebrated is how massive a talent Prost was. I still put Senna over him, though, if for nothing else but his wet weather performance, but still, Prost was a fantastic driver.

the 2007 mclaren season doesnt have to been taken in discussion, the both finish with the same points and mclaren box where divided, sabotaging both of them (in my opinion i think Alonso was a bit more sabotaged)

Strong claim that nobody has thought this. I have definitely seen some analysis on this before. Cool video though.

That's why Prost is clearly the Goat. By miles.

Moped by Senna😂

It has to be Prost Mansell, Senna, Rosberg, Hill, and Lauda are enough to shoot him to the top

Massa: Frentzen (3 wins, 2 poles, 18 podiums, 2nd in 1997) Fisichella (3 wins, 4 poles, 19 podiums, 4th in 2006) Villeneuve (11 wins, 13 poles, 23 podiums, 1x WC) Schumi (91 wins, 69 poles, 155 podiums, 7x WC) Kimi (21 wins, 18 poles, 103 podiums, 1x WC) Alonso (32 wins, 22 poles, 106 podiums, 2x WC) Bottas (10 wins, 20 poles, 67 podiums, 2nd in 2019 & 2020) In 15 seaons he only beat his teammate in the standings 3x (2005 villeneuve by 2 pts, 2008 kimi by 22 & 2017 stroll by 3 pts). Therefore he had the hardest teammates ever! 4 champs (11 chips in total) & 2 runner-ups!

Yeah you gotta feel for the guy. Probably looked forward to a chance of being Ferrari's main guy when Schumi left, only to have Kimi and Alonso as his next two teammates

Definitely Prost. I mean, he had m'fuggin Ayrton Senna da Silva in the other goddamn car.

why can't there be saturday races in F2 or F3 cars and regular races on sunday ? why does every year have to be what car is the fastest and never also get to find out who is the fastest ????

Fernando is and will always be the ultimate snake of a teammate.

So, if Lewis had beaten Nico, he would have less champions to fight with in this list, so he would be lower?

Obviously. Same way the Mercedes cars were less dominant than Verstappen's championship Red Bulls because Verstappen was better able to keep up with them than Mercedes can keep up with him.

Was Rosberg included ?? Or Shcumaher or Vettel??

What do you mean you haven't found any? When hamilton said it last year there were tons of them.

@mr v’s garage has done this

sorry but I could not help it, THINK ABOUT IT, THEY SAY THE MAX IS GREATER THAN ALL THOSE DRIVERS...This video should be used as a reference to counter this false narrative fed to us by F1 marketing.

Prost and Senna.

109-109 2007.

Alonso, Prost, Senna, Hamilton. The Goats.

Prost is the Goat!!! Constantly Over shadowed by Senna because Senna had more charisma and also Sennas death basically immortalized him. Real F1 fans know the truth....Prost is the better driver.

Obviously the driver who had the hardest teammates in F1 is 2016 FIA Formula 1 World Drivers' Champion Nico Rosberg, who beat 7 time FIA Formula 1 World Drivers' Champion Sir Lewis Hamilton and 7 time FIA Formula 1 World Drivers' Champion Michael Schumacher in equal machinery. But no, in reality it is Prost

Prost or Hamilton
