Ranking the 10 best drivers of an F1 junior series stalwart

DAMS has been one of the most prolific teams below Formula 1 since its foundation in 1989, launching 32 drivers into grand prix racing. Following the team's sale to ex-F1 racer Charles Pic, formally closing the book on the ownership of the Driot family, Autosport picks out its 10 best drivers during their spell with the team

A stalwart of junior single-seaters since its foundation in 1989, DAMS has won titles across pretty much every category you could care to mention over the past 30-odd years.

The Formula 3000 International Championship and its Bruno Michel-run successor series GP2 and Formula 2 has been its bread and butter, but it also achieved success in the rivalling Formula Renault 3.5 championship and its short-lived feeder category Formula Renault V6, plus the equally moribund A1GP World Cup of Motorsport for teams representing nations.
