Bottom post of the previous page:

Age doesn't say that much. Speed is not everything. Prost won, like @DoubleFart already mentioned, a title when he was 38. Clever driving, being there when it counts.

Not to mention all the Indy and NASCAR drivers racing in their late-40s and beyond.

Right, because IndyCar needs Tony Kanaan driving his ass at the back?

In 1994 Mansell won a race and in 1995 he couldn't fit his body into the cockpit anymore. Where's the beef?

At least you didn't mention Morgan Shepherd :haha:
