This book may forever change the way you look at Formula One Grand Prix racing. Who were truly the all-time ‘greats’? Which drivers have been grossly overrated? The Quality Point Rating System (QPRS) is a mathematical formula-based method that looks at drivers and their cars separately, analyzing their race results. Which drivers benefitted from clearly superior cars during their careers? Which drivers showed they could win even when behind the wheel of a lesser car? What was the level of the competition faced during the years a driver raced? All these questions and more need to be taken into account when properly assessing the role of any driver in achieving the results for which they and their team have been credited in the annals of F1 history.

Clyde P. Berryman is a retired US Foreign Service Officer.
