Bueno pues nuestro amigo Bernie Ecclestone, resulta que no está tan enamorado de ciertos pilotos como parecía...
Si tuviera que elegir un piloto de la época moderna, esto es, de 2000 en adelante....no sería Schumacher el elegido....
Tampoco su protegio Vettel, ni siquiera su aconsejado Hamilton....
Ahora direis, anda ya. No puede ser. Pero cómo va a elegir a......
Como se suele decir, ver para creer....

In a new feature for the 2015 summer break, we asked the great and good of the Formula One racing community to choose their 'dream team' from history - two drivers, one team boss, and one car. To see them all, follow @F1 on Twitter - but to get the ball rolling, the first to make their selection is Formula One Group CEO, Bernie Ecclestone...
Bernie Ecclestone's selection
Jochen Rindt
Active Years: 1964 - 1970
Champion: 1970
Wins: 6
Podiums: 13
Poles: 10
The only posthumous champion in F1 history, Rindt won renown for his audacious, swashbuckling style just as much as much as his supreme speed and ability. Arguably the finest win of his short career came at Monaco in 1970, when he smashed the lap record in an electrifying and successful pursuit of Jack Brabham. He lost his life in a practice crash at Monza on September 5, 1970.

Fernando Alonso
Active Years: 2001 - Present
Champion: 2005, 2006
Wins: 32
Podiums: 97
Poles: 22
Fernando Alonso was just 24 when he led Renault to a championship double in 2005, in the process ending the reign of Michael Schumacher and Ferrari. Confirmation of the Spaniard's brilliance came with another double in 2006. Titles may have eluded him in the subsequent years, despite moves to McLaren and Ferrari, but many still regard him as the greatest driver of his era.

Flavio Briatore
A colourful, flamboyant and sometimes controversial figure, Flavio Briatore made his name in F1 by turning Benetton into a successful team - aided by his capture of then-emerging star Michael Schumacher. He parted with the team in 1997, but returned at the helm when Renault took over and again presided over championship glory, this time through another young discovery - Fernando Alonso.
Brabham BT49
The car that took Nelson Piquet to his first world championship in 1981, the Brabham BT49 claimed a total of seven wins, six poles and 15 podiums over four seasons between 1979 and 1982. The brainchild of legendary designer Gordon Murray, the BT49 is also regarded as one of the most beautiful cars to race in F1.
Y traduzco: "Quizá los títulos les han esquivado en los años posteriores a 2006, a pesar incluso de haber ido a McLaren y a Ferrari, pero aún así muchos le consideran el piloto más grande de su era."
Hasta la momia se nos rinde a Alonso....
Debe ser tal la penita que damos con Honda.....
