Damon was a real gentleman into the racing tracks .

I wish Damon had started racing cars earlier. We've might have seen him debut in the mid 80's in F1. It would have been interesting to see him going head to head with Mansell.

Well, you could argue Montoya did.
Personally I consider Hill a more consistent driver than Montoya ever was in F1. I'm still disappointed he managed to screw up a well deserved constructors' title for McLaren in 2005.

@TheLloydF1 - don't 'alf envy your Dad!

@PaulCastle001 my dad raced against graham hill in a couple of formula ford races and said he was not only the best racing driver he had seen but the nicest person he had ever met and he was a true gentleman. ive met jackie stewart at silverston he was just walking by himself i went up to him and a nice 20 min long conversation. i only wish i was alive back then when racing was so challanging and the drivers were true gentleman .

@The LloydF1: many thanks for this; loved it. I've never seen Damon race, but I did see his incomparable dad (plus Jim Clark and Jackie Stewart) in saloon car races at Snetterton (five cars abreast going into the Esses when there's only room for two. Four minis and a Lotus Cortina = the best example of driving skill I've ever seen. GH, JS and JC were racing in 'em and nobody crashed. Yes, I am that old...

@PaulCastle001 i think his father beats him as the nicest guy ever to be a World Champion.
-
Why did his team kick him out after 1996 title? Why?
