Jody Scheckter en route to third at the 1978 Monaco Grand Prix for Walter Wolf Racing.
Perhaps the most under rated of World Champions, Jody is usually chucked in with the Jacques and Kekes with “good but not super great”. However, unlike those two and like others such as Damon Hill and Nigel Mansell, Jody had come close and in cars usually considered second best, namely his 3rd place finishes with Tyrrell in 74 and 76, as well as finishing 2nd with unrated Walter Wolf Racing in 1977, notching up seven victories in 4 seasons, before an uneventful season in 78 was followed by a consistant points-laden season with the Scuderia en route to his title.
