it's cool that they actually included drivers from the pre-WWII era, but in all honesty, if you want to be subjective about it, caraciola was at least rosemeyers equal -- if not superior. dumping him down into 33 just seems absurd.
chris amon at 13 is another pick that makes you go 'wtf?'. he deserves to be on such a list. i'd even say in the top 75 or so, but 13?
i wouldn't quibble much with the top 3, though. i think a good argument could be made for swapping 1 and 2, but that's about it.

Chris AMon had terrible luck his entire career. 13 my be appropriate here.
Kimi and "Louise" as Hoobs refers to him don't belong on this list at this time in their careers.
Mika ahead of Schumacher?
Actually, almost anyone ahead of Schumacher other than Fangio is questionable - although Shumacher hasn't shown the versatility of some of these guys...Andretti, Clark, Foyt, Gurney, Stewart

as i said, he deserves to be in such a ranking. but ahead of lauda, fittipaldi and even jochen rindt (a contemporary, who really had far better pace than he had in much crappier gear)?
well, ipersonally would say 'no'. :)
