I was lazy for my first driver and settled on
S. Nicolau. It was close enough for me.
I was determined to have a particular top-name driver in my squad, but I stopped at
T. Fujiwara, which seemed too good to miss out on!
I stumbled on a few of note along the way, though.
Some real names:
(J.)P. Gaultier
B. Sherman
M. Neal (BTCC driver, Matt)
S.(R.) Vaughan
L. Richard
J. Romero (Notorious games developer, John)
M. Polo
J. Hunt (ex. F1 driver, James)
(G.)S. Patton (the one-time general)
D. Duran
Some almost-real names:
J. Wiley (Jo Whiley, BBC radio DJ)
K. Klein
G. Gonzalez
T. Schuhmacher
F. Jansson
P. Delaney
D. Ventura
Some that seemed funny or odd:
C. Hunt
I. Rich (considerably more so than you)
G. Riddle (top BBQ chef!)
R. Banks (first name Robin...)
R. Little (counterpart to L. Richard)
H. Bigot
O. Reilly
A. Prince
I also saw the names Miller and Wooten in quick succession, who are often in competition amongst their respective zealots... I saw my own surname in a race, which was cool. I, too, saw a Yamauchi, but with the wrong initial.
Anyway, the hunt will continue for my preferred driving ace next time
