Alain Prost

Alain Prost, known as 'The Professor,' won four world titles through cerebral racecraft and extraordinary consistency, securing 51 victories and 106 podiums from 199 starts. In 1985, Prost became the first driver to reach 30 Grand Prix wins. His 1986 title, won with two wins to rival Nigel Mansell's five, proved that strategic mastery often trumps outright speed.
