F1 champion reacts to incredibly rare video – ‘Where did you get this?!’
A rare video from 1996 featuring Damon Hill has recently become popular on social media. Hill became the F1 world champion in 1996 by beating his teammate Jacques Villeneuve and Michael Schumacher. Despite this victory, he was replaced at Williams by Heinz-Harald Frentzen at the end of the season and never won another championship. The footage shows Hill playfully pretending to steer a boat, reading about the Australian Grand Prix, and engaging in comical acting. Hill himself was surprised by the release of the video, asking, “Where did you get this?” Hill dominated the 1996 season by winning eight races and securing nine pole positions, while his replacement, Frentzen, only managed one victory in two seasons.
