I shall have to add it to my list.
For me, Damon Hill was in the B group of drivers: certainly good enough to win races, and in the right circumstances had a championship in him. For some reason he reminds me of Riccardo Patrese. Think about it, if Mansell hadn't gone back to Williams in 1991, the '92 WDC would probably have been Patrese or Boutsen, so good was that Williams. And Hill in a good car in qualifying, with the dying seconds of the session ticking down, was quite amazing. Was he as good as Schumacher? Obviously not, and I'm sure Damon wouldn't claim to be. But he deserved a title. |
