We also mark the birthday of Damon Hill, who overcame the weight of expectation to become World Champion in 1996 and carry on his father’s legacy. And we revisit the 2023 Singapore Grand Prix, where Carlos Sainz ended Red Bull’s winning streak with a brilliant display of tactical racecraft under the Marina Bay lights.Join us as we look back on the legend that titles couldn’t measure, the champion who defied the odds, and the night Ferrari shone again.Send us Fan MailMusic by #Mubert Music Rendering
