These Spaniards seem to excel at every form of motorsport. Sainz at rallying; Criville, Pedrosa and Lorenzo at 500/MotoGP; and of course Alonso at F1.

Lorenzo appears to be the real thing. Three poles, a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in the first 3 races and is currently joint leader in the championship with Pedrosa.
