Re: Phil Hill, America's first F1 Champ - RIP
Sad news. Phil Hill was one of the giants. For the success that he had during the most dangerous era of motorsports can not be over appreciated. And he came through completely unscathed.
I don't think that Phil Hill ever got his due in America because most of his major achievements were achieved outside the U.S. He is probably one of the rare American sport figures who is more well-known outside America than within.
Ferrari is planning some sort of tribute at Spa.
