I have to say Solberg with McRae in close second. The only reason Solberg won out, in my opinion, is that I didn't watch rallying as much when McRae was with Subaru. But, every old video of McRae's amazes me. I just wish I was a fan when he was actually driving for them.

Solberg, narrowly over Burnsie. Like nKoan with McCrae, Solberg is the first driver I've seen much of "firsthand," meaning ralllies that I watch immediately after they happened. Solberg is the ultimate team player, always shouldering blame and sharing credit as much as possible, while still acknowledging his own skills and even showing some bravado (i.e., telling Nicky Grist that Gronholm was the one who should be feeling pressure when he was leading Solberg going into the last few stages of a rally last year!) without ever seeming arrogant or brash or cocky. Plus, Petter celebrates his victories like a 5 year old.

Im going to have to go with Solberg on this one, then Tommy in second just because I never watched it or was really into it when Burns or McRae were driving for Subaru. Petter Solberg is probably my favorite driver as of now with Gronholm coming in as second.
