Anyone can line up anywhere. Each position weighs the five ratings its own way, and off the natural position a legend loses a few points.

Pros: 98 speed. Won four golds at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, in front of the one man who least wanted to see it.
Cons: 56 power. Corners will try to jam him. They have to catch him first.
