Anybody know a better one?

I agree Watson’s was the best, but a very close second was Hockenheim in 2000. Ruben Barrichello’s first win saw him start from 18th on the grid. A first corner shunt, a crazy person on the track and then rain all added to the drama…



Although some luck went his way, Barrichello’s overtakes and then his drive through heavy rain on slicks was simply sensational. In 2000, the McLaren was arguably a better car than the Ferrari and Barrichello - like Watson - was a fabulous driver, but never one of the ‘greats’.
