Deciding which drivers are "legends" doesn't follow the neutral point of view policy. What I consider to be a legendary racing driver is different than what someone else would. Royalbroil 15:02, 26 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete – per nom, plus all this information is already available in other, similar, more neutrally-constructed articles. Bretonbanquet (talk) 15:26, 26 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Requires us to subjectively identify people as "legends", which is definitely not within the scope of our duties. WP:POV WP:OR Even if we were to change the article to something less subjective, like "Deaths of race car drivers dubbed 'Legends' by XYZ magazine, it would still be a weird article of dubious academic purpose."
