Well Hill has won more than we have, you have to at least read his opinion, even if at the end you disagree and think he is just a bitter 1 time winner.
I'm on his side I'm afraid to say, sorry Mav!

This is the Damon Hill who twice drove straight into the back of Michael when trying to pass him in 1995?

This is the Damon Hill who was only even remotely in the 1994 championship race because the FIA manipulated the championship - how many races were Schumacher/Benetton excluded from for one reason or another?

This is the Damon Hill who's first race win in that controversial 1994 year came at Barcelona when Schumacher drove 2/3 race distance with his Benetton stuck in 5th gear - and still finished second?

This is the Damon Hill, who in an identical car in 1994, struggled to get anywhere near the late, great Ayrton Senna, and yet somehow claimed to be a genuine title contender?

Every so often there are truly greats in any form of sport - Senna was one, and Schumacher was another.

Jeff mate,, don't apologise , as you are missing the point !
Damon (over the) Hill was a fantastic motorcycle racer (fact)
he was also a real good courier rider (fact)
His mother was beside herself when Damon wanted to enter into the world of motorcyle racing (fact)
so she, along with frank williams set out a plan to put Damon in a car (fact)

He, Damon was then sent practicing lap after lap after lap and did in fact do more laps of estoril than any other F1 driver ever ! (fact)

Damon never came up through the ranks of karting (fact)
he was a manufactured Driver (fact)

He's great in a band (fact)

he's a real nice man too (fact)
But he is not and has never been 1% the driver Schumi was/is (fact)

thanks for reading

Don't see what the problem is with his comments that I have just read on BBC News site?

Damon said he was a brilliant driver but that his winning all the time was bad for the sport. Too right it was. It's become a boring procession which I, my family and many of my friends have stopped watching.

If you want real racing watch a Grand Prix race from the seventies or modern bike racing. People actually overtake each other time after time and you get wheel to wheel racing, Wow!
