There are 3 American motor racing legends - Mario, Dan Gurney and AJ - you can keep the rest. They have provided true race fans with countless hours of enjoyment, their achievements are monumental and all 3 certainly rank in any list of All-Time Greats in my opinion.

As for the "integrity" argument, I never heard of AJ being in court or not paying a debt or reneging on a deal ... did you?

As for temper, I could name plenty of F1 people renowned for a bit of temper - Senna, Piquet, Irvine, Surtees spring to mind instantly - and nobody accuses them of having no integrity.
