I totally slept on this, but amazing list Antonio. Being selected as Senna is honestly one of the highest honours I've received in my life.

Lucky bugger. I was only watching this yesterday - they'll never be another like him.
But yeah, great stuff Toni. Even if I did get lumbered with the most undeserving World Champion of all time (if Gilles hadn't died and Peroni hadn't had his accident he wouldn't have been anywhere near the title). Norm as "The Professor" has a nice touch, and Kiki as Scheckter instantly made me think of this. Can't imagine why... _________________ 'Reggae' & t'ing

A collateral production of my brain. Didn't know if I should do an account, but not doing, I keep revising this shit to no end. Publish or perish swain. Not sticking fully to the original criteria after all, in order to make the list more inclusive. Also added a bit of commentary, because some users probably don't know these. Sorry to the new users, I have not been here.

I'm sure one can formulate criteria, showing that Gauss is THE BEST

There was something called Hilbert's program, and some claim it failed.

Brandon Miaow: Lewis Carroll
Was Brandon's favorite author (maybe Emma Goldman has succeeded here). Carroll was appointed mathematician, but didn't do much research, which I'm sure Brandon, if appointed mathematician, wouldn't do either.
