Marc Basseng

Marc Basseng earns my respect as a craftsman rather than a headline-chaser. His 2012 was extraordinary, the FIA GT1 World Championship plus the Nürburgring 24 Hours for Audi, and conquering the brutal Nordschleife for a full day demands patience and head as much as raw speed. What I find most telling is his long stint as both driver and team manager at Münnich Motorsport. Seeing the sport from inside the cockpit and from the pit wall is a rare double vision. I'm drawn to professionals who can lead as well as perform, and he clearly belongs in that quiet, expert class.
