WATCH: Senna, Schumacher and Verstappen star in our top 10 wet weather drives in F1
Can you ever truly be a Formula 1 legend if you don't have one of the great wet weather drives on your CV?
Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton are just three of F1's great drivers to have put in performances in the rain that saw them rise head and shoulders above the rest of the field, finding grip where others could only spin, finding speed where the rest could only just about hang on.
In this video we celebrate those truly epic drives from F1's rainmasters, including Senna’s ‘Lap of the Gods’ at Donington in 1993 for the European Grand Prix, and Hamilton’s calm amid the storm that hit the 2008 British Grand Prix.
