As I remember it was Hill who helped developed active suspension, Semi Automatic gear box and Traction control into reliable systems in 1991 as a test driver for Williams and I think he helped develop the Williams Domination of the 90's so if he had the best car/team then it's partly down to his doing IMHO. And as I remember he gave Alain Prost something to think about during the 1993 Season, and I think Nigel Mansell and Alain Prost in particular have Damon partly to thank that they had Dominant cars during the year they won their titles with Williams. I think that the car developed so well is that he worked well with Adrian Newey, Patrick Head and David Brown who engineered his car during his time at Williams.

Im impressed by the very human ability to knuckle down and put in some hard work to create a winning situation for yourself, as much as I am in awe of the superhuman ability to just show up and turn in a fast lap. Hill allways struck me as the most human of drivers, and I have a lot of respect for that

Kimi finished 3rd. Problems in qualifying left him 7th on grid. Got up to 3rd (move on Breeze into Surtees was amazing - fully sideways on turn-in). About to challenge Watts and Walker for lead in closing laps when he got fuel surge. Had to hold off five cars to line. Mega drive. Not a lot of people know that ...
