I think the race that cemented it for me was when he was driving the Ford and he started losing gears in the transmission. He ended up finishing 3rd and only had 3 gears left at the end of the race and he actually led for quite awhile when he first started having problems.

He even made a pit stop with the broken transmission. After that race I knew he was gonna be one of the all time greats.
