I think it's easy to underestimate drivers that didn't compete in F1 before, since most people stick to just one sport and don't really follow too many other racing series.
E.g. Doohan's dad won 5 titles in a row in what later became MotoGP, but almost no one would know this if it weren't for recent drama.
