The top 50 drivers who never raced in F1

By:

It's one of motorsport's greatest debates: who could have been an F1 great but never got the chance? The AUTOSPORT team has attempted a definitive answer

Every driver who races single-seaters aspires to reach the pinnacle of the sport, Formula 1. The vast majority of them will fail, many because they simply aren't good enough to earn a place.

Others do have what it takes but fall by the wayside for myriad reasons, be it insufficient funding, lack of opportunity, injury and, in a few thankfully increasingly rare cases, death.
