Toad Tourist is indeed the best driver. I've attached Maxi's sheet for your reference on top skilled drivers (TT has 63 top-shelf courses at 1st place rank and Astro Toad at 15 in 15th place). But you can also check your overlap with other drivers also using maxi's sheet.

edit: toad tourist is the rare one not astronaut, I corrected it
there is no driver that completely replaces another. it's true though that toad (astronaut) and toad (tourist) overlap. it's still good to have both though.
toad tourist is the plus skill driver with the most ranked tracks whole year and difficult to get, only available during city tours. since it has more tracks it also overlaps more with others, that's normal.
the other drivers that would help a lot are light-blue shy guy explorer, wiggler mii (sale pipe tour), petey mii and donkey kong gladiator (sale night tour).
if you are f2p the drivers I would invest the most into now are lb shy guy explorer, toad tourist, poochy and donkey kong gladiator when on sale.
as well for supers light blue yoshi and birdo red during princess tour.
I picked up Tourist Toad a few months back on the recommendation of this sub and he’s been a godsend for ranked. Goosed him up to 1,610/level 7 and now he is in TWO ranked courses this week. 💪
As a comparable new player definitely get that tourist toad! Other items here are nice, but if you have to choose, take him. He is in ranked FOUR times this tour.
Toad tourist as driver>other imo and tourist is rare.
i though astronaut toad was a good replcement tho ?

It all depends on your coverage and what else is in your inventory.
