1996 Formula 1 World Champion, Damon Hill, and F1TV’s lead commentator, Alex Jacques, join Christian Hewgill at the British Grand Prix for an F1 history lesson - 75 years since the World Championship began at Silverstone in 1950.
How did the pinnacle of motorsport begin? What did the first World Championship look like in terms of the cars, the calendar and the Constructors? Who were the sport’s biggest superstars in the early decades? What have been the biggest technological advances? How has safety improved over time? And which rivalries continue to define the sport today?
Alex takes us through the defining moments of each era, how Formula 1 transformed into the spectacle it is today and what we can expect in the future.
And Damon talks about his life in Formula 1 – including watching his World Champion father Graham as a child to following in his footsteps by winning the title in ’96, his epic rivalry with Michael Schumacher and being teammates with the legendary Ayrton Senna – and how the sport is so different now to when he was racing.
