Formula One World Drivers' Champions

[edit] Alain Prost

Alain Marie Pascal Prost OBE (born February 24, 1955 in Saint-Chamond, France) is a retired French racing driver and four-time Formula One World Champion. In terms of World Drivers' Championship titles, only Juan Manuel Fangio and Michael Schumacher have been more successful in the sport's history.

Prost discovered karting at the age of 14 during a family holiday. He won the French and European F3 championships before joining McLaren in 1980 at the age of 25. Prost took his first of 51 race victories at his home Grand Prix in France a year later, while he was driving for the Renault Factory team.

Prost employed a smooth, relaxed style behind the wheel, modelling himself on personal heroes like Jackie Stewart and Jim Clark. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, Prost formed a fierce rivalry with Ayrton Senna, the two had a series of controversial races, including a collision at the 1989 Japanese Grand Prix that gave Prost his third Drivers' championship win. A year later at the same venue they collided again and Senna won the title. After an unsucessful 1991 with Ferrari and a sabbatical in 1992, Prost joined Williams, where he dominated the season before finally retiring at the end of the season. In 1997 Prost took over the French Ligier team, running it as Prost Grand Prix until it went bankrupt in 2001.
