Why Peter Revson ranks #95 in Formula 1

Peter Revson ranks 95th among Formula 1 athletes on GOAT Rank and 2212th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 71.8 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 66, Peak 86, Longevity 70, Honours 62, Statistics 78. Those categories are normalised against the full Formula 1 reference universe of 146 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1964–1974 with 4 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1973, which sets the Peak component at 86. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 86 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes grand prix wins 2, podiums 8, pole positions 1, can-am titles 1.

Immediately ahead sits Nick Heidfeld on 71.7, a gap of -0.1 points. Directly behind is Kevin Magnussen on 71.5. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
