Surtees gets my vote. Simply because he could have stayed in 500cc and continued winning, but he chose to switch to F1 and he won that too. Surtees had a combined 8 championships between 350cc, 500cc and F1. He's also the first person to win the Isle of Mann TT 3 times in a row, while it was still a part of the GP Circuit. The Nurburgring, Isle of Mann, that was SERIOUS racing. He is also the only person to win Championships on both two and four wheels. Sorry, but Rossi doesn't even compete IMO.
But yeah, you could be right, he could be doing it just for fun.
