Damon Hill could've added more than one title to his name had not Williams seen fit to reward him for their 1996 World Championship by sacking him.
Initially in the shadow of not just his father, but also Nigel Mansell, Hill proved he could go wheel to wheel with the best, producing one of the drives of all time at Suzuka in 1994 to defeat Michael Schumacher.
Schumacher was to figure large in Hill's career, most notoriously at Adelaide in 1995, when the German appeared to deliberately crash into Hill
just when it looked like the Brit would pass and take the Championship.
