Murray Walker could tell a good story, it would be cool to hear his story, what got him interested in cars and racing and in his mind who was the greatest.
 
Frank Biela? TK (Tom Kristensen)? Franchitti? Dindo Capello? Prost?

Great names. But I would like more names of the past times: Fangio, Rosemier, Nuvolari, Jim Clark, Brabham, Hawthorn, etc.

This is a must, no excuse, PD is very close by to the Dori King - at least within the same country/city :D The AE86 must be premium, his race cars from the 80's, 90's Touring Car ( R32 GTR ) could be included too.
 
OP amended to "auto racing personalties"

Fangio. Loeb is now legend, but he's still alive.
 
Maldonado:p

What about Graham Hill? Won races at f1, Indianapolis, and Le Mans. He alone can represent motorsports in the 60's more or less.
 
I can envision them doing Scheckter and perhaps Moss in the future, though I'd love to see Derek Bell or Ari Vatanen included, if they want to do other legends.
 
We already have one of the greatest Ayrton Senna, I would like to put forward Taki Inoue. With safety car DLC would make a good "coffee break"..... Get Taki.


For those of you who have twitter I suggest you follow Taki. He knows his F1 better than most.

On a more serious note, I wouldn't mind Colin McRae or Richard Burns.

I actually got to see this specific car last year in a little town in Italy. The best thing was that Arnoux was driving it. Hearing it in real life was so amazing that I really hope Gilles is going to be included in GT6.

Yup. Keiichi Tsuchiya is a real legend and one of the first people to drift. :)

Year is 1987 and he is drifting down the Usui mountain in Levin AE86. :)

 
James Hunt ... not for the racing but for the parties

Considering the rights of Senna's life PD and the Senna Institute have on Senna only extend to '87, the Camel Lotus just outside of the shot would most likely be the F1 car we'd get.

And I'd give a vote to AJ Foyt being included. Any driver who wins the 24 Hours of Le Mans and Daytona, the Indianapolis 500 and the Daytona 500 is a damn good driver (and a lucky one to boot).

Maybe i'm a bit offtopic, but i would really like Kaz and PD tomake a tribute to those drivers that had racing in their lifes and in some cases surrendered it while racing and driving.

Beside Ayrton, just to name a few exaples;

Clay Reguzzoni (stuck on wheelchair and kept racing!)
Elio De Angelis (died on free practice with brabham)
Michele Alboreto (left us while testing with the audi it would have then won at le mans 24h due to aerodinamic break up)
Niki Lauda (gave his skin his dedication to racing)
Roland Ratzenberger (died at Imole '94 during qualy)
and williamson, bellof.... and so on the list is long and will never end.
 
not a legendary racer at all, but a "Jay leno garage" feature would be cool. He could choose a few of his favorites from his garage for dlc and some that are already in the game. Featuring maybe a narrated showcase of the car. With top gear gone from GT jay leno could be a nice fill in.

Zanardi.
 
I definately have to go with AJ Foyt like @Snaeper said, It seems most people are just looking at people who were great at one form of driving, it should go to people who mastered many forms of racing and excelled at them all, and just had the true passion for racing
