Hypothetical question for fun. :) If Damon Hill, Nigel Mansell and Michael Schumacher were all young drivers today, ie, all the same age as alonso, hamilton and vettel, with the same skill level they had back in their day, would they be good enough to beat today's elite crop of top drivers? Naturally the car technology has changed, but given just skill alone, would they stand a chance? Obviously Schumacher is currently competing, but perhaps it would be a different story if he were still in his twenties.
 
Interesting to know. I only ask because often people say that footballers today are faster or more skilled than the famous players of yesteryear and likewise with tennis. So I just wondered if that was the case with F1.
