Every sport has its greatest athletes of all-time, including racing. This is the case for IndyCar. Here are the 10 best drivers in the sport’s history.

Another IndyCar season has officially ended, this one closing with Josef Newgarden winning his first career championship this past season and becoming the sport’s first American champion since Ryan Hunter-Reay in 2012.

But the 2018 season is quickly approaching, as it begins on Sunday, March 11th with the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. In fact, none of the major racing series, including IndyCar, NASCAR and Formula One, are in action right now, as all are now in the offseason following the 2017 season waiting for the 2018 season to begin.

With everything pretty much at a halt right now and still a solid amount of time until the 2018 seasons begin, this is a perfect time to look back at the history of each of these three racing in terms of their top 10 drivers of all-time.

This article will rank the top 10 drivers in the history of IndyCar.

Note that these rankings involve only information from the IndyCar careers of each of these 10 drivers. Statistics from any other races series, such as Indy Lights, Pro Mazda or USF2000 are not factored into these rankings.

Without further ado, let’s get started with the driver ranked in the #10 spot in the rankings.
