Looking good. I messed up number 12 - I meant before 2000 but you’re right in saying the 20th century includes thr year 2000.
You put Raikkonen in there twice mate ;)
Remaining: Nelson Piquet
Strategy: Obviously all these questions couldn’t be answered off the bat, so I just did all the questions I could and put whatever answers were logical for 6, 9, 15, 20, and 25. I also did just a little bit of cheating off of the other answer.
Conflict: 14 & 25 - Ayrton Senna. He definitely had 3 championships contested in Japan, known especially for the battles between himself and Prost. He is also the last driver to win the championship coming from the Southern Hemisphere, Mansell (GB), Prost (FR), Schumacher (DE), Hill (GB), Villeneuve (CA), Hakkinen (FI), Alonso (ES), Raikkonen (FI), Hamilton (GB), Button (GB), Vettel (DE), and Rosberg (DE) all being from the Northern hemisphere.
Also when are you going to make a post about the predictions at the beginning of the year?
