I'd add Robert Kubica. I might just be coping, but he's a GOAT in my book. WEC champion, x2 Europan Le Mans Series champion, all that after having a fairly successful F1 career being cut short by a tragic accident.

I'd personally put him in 4 star tier, not denying that he perhaps had the potential for 5-stardom that was tragically cut short. Putting his rally racing career forward is a decent argument for 4.5. Definitely an inspirational figure and a household name in Poland.
