Tough call. In the end, I have to go with Schumacher. 7 World Driving Championships to his credit, where the next best has only 4 (Prost). The most dominant Grand Prix driver of this - or any - era.
As to Federer, he's phenomenal no doubt. But I don't think he's AS far above his peers as, say, Schumacher is above his (although that's changing fast). I'd like to see his win/loss records for the past few years before defintively comparing him to his peers.
I would add Shaquille O'Neal to the list as well.
