Paul Frere is The Belgian motorsports n°1 imho
with Ickx a close second!!!!
Yes, I wouldn't argue with that - and I am a huge fan of his journalism. In terms of sports cars though, Gendebien's record is also very impressive:
Tour of Sicily : 1957
Tour de France (auto) : 1957, 1958, 1959
Reims 12 Hour race : 1957, 1958
Targa Florio : 1958, 1961, 1962
Sebring 12 Hours : 1959, 1960, 1961
Le Mans 24 hours : 1958, 1960, 1961, 1962
Nürburgring 1000km : 1962
