Autosport's Top 50 Drivers of the Year - Part 1

Autosport’s Top 50 Drivers of the Year is our traditional attempt to pick out, rank and highlight the best performers of the season just gone. The 2025 list has drivers from such diverse categories as Formula 1, the World Endurance Championship, World Rally Championship, NASCAR and Australian Supercars. In this Part we'll run down numbers 50-21. Host Kevin Turner is joined by Senior F1 Writer Stuart Codling, sportscar and GT guru Gary Watkins and Autosport.com Editor Haydn Cobb to explain the list and to debate some of the more controversial positions – not everyone on the staff agrees with the final list! To read the full Top 50, head to Autosport.com or look out for the January issue of Autosport magazine, out on 19 December. Want to try subscribing to the magazine?
