Jim Clark (1960-1968)

A two-time F1 world champion (1963 & 1965) with 25 race victories in 72 race starts. He won 34.7% of the races he entered and Lewis Hamilton‘s current winning percentage is 36.3%.

Tragically he lost his life in a Formula Two racing accident at Hockenheim in 1968. At the time of his passing he had the most career race victories (25) in F1 history.
