#3 John Surtees, 1964
Surtees, driving with Ferrari for the second year during the 1964 ten race calendar, started off the campaign pretty slow. With three mechanical failures in the first four rounds, the Brit seemed far away from the points leader Jim Clark.
The remaining six races of the season just swapped the scenarios for the Brit and Scotsman. Jim Clark finished at 7th at USA and 5th at Mexico, after retiring off the races at German, Austrian and Italian Grands Prix.
Surtees reversed his fate by winning at German and Italian races, finishing second in the USA and Mexican races. He thereby turned around the title standings, won the championship, being ahead of Damon Hill by 1 point and Jim Clark by 8 points.
