Michael Schumacher
With his entry into Formula 1 in 1991, the absolute motorsport madness began in Germany. The Kerpener won the world championship seven times, won 91 Grand Prix races and, as the most successful Ferrari driver of all time, almost single-handedly changed the image of the Germans in Italy for the better.
