Former F1 Champ Damon Hill has joined the Sky Sport’s team, providing expert analysis for the soon-to-launch dedicated F1 channel, Sky Sports F1 HD.
Hill, who won the Formula One Drivers’ Championship back in 1996 with the Williams outfit, will join Martin Brundle and company on air for ten of the season’s 20 grands prix.
“The plans Sky Sports have for Formula 1 are very impressive, particularly the dedicated Formula 1 channel and I couldn’t resist becoming involved,” said Hill.
“There are so many reasons to be excited about the new season and I can’t wait to get started.”
Hill’s arrival on the Sky sport’s team has been welcomed by Executive Producer Martin Turner.
“Damon Hill is a British motor racing legend and has incredible Formula 1 knowledge and insight,” Turner said.
“He will provide our viewers with not just a driver’s eye view, but also that of a World Champion.
“There aren’t many around and I’m delighted we’ll have Damon with us during the season.”
