20 years on from his World Championship title Damon Hill tells the story of his journey when
he took on the greats including Michael Schumacher and emerged victorious as
World Champion in 1996, stepping out of the shadow of his father, Graham Hill.
Away
from the grid, Watching the Wheels: The Autobiography is an
astonishingly candid account of what it was like to grow up as the son of one
of the country's most famous racing drivers.
It also tells the unflinching
story of dealing with the grief and chaos that followed his father's tragically
early death in an aircraft accident in 1975, when Damon was 15 years old. A
great book and long overdue.
