I just recognised your name...are you a fellow BATRacer?--Diniz(talk) 21:05, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
- I thought so! I actually left the first comment on your first account, back when it belonged to Bram Machiels. It's a small world!--Diniz(talk) 21:25, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Just put your name down (if you haven't). If I discover any bias towards Alonso or Sato, who are both good drivers, you will have a warning and after persistent bias you will be blocked etc. Sorry if this is harsh but in this time it is a vandal time. Chubbennaitor 19:53, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
- I hope that was a joke... ;) Don't worry, only serious and repeated violations of the neutral point-of-view would result in any sanction. All the WPF1 editors presumably have favourite drivers and/or teams, or at least personal opinions on the sport, but I think we manage to keep them under control. Welcome to the project!--Diniz(talk) 20:39, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
- That was quite the welcome! From a NPOV, welcome to Wikipedia and the project! Apterygial talkstalkinsane idea 00:03, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Article of the month - Damon Hill, kept at Featured Article status after review.
Damon Graham Devereux Hill OBE (born 17 September 1960) is a retired British racing driver from England. In 1996 Hill won the Formula One World Championship; as the son of the late Graham Hill, he is the only son of a world champion to win the title. His father died in a plane crash when Hill was 15, leaving the family in reduced circumstances and Hill came to professional motorsports at the relatively late age of 23 by racing motorcycles. After some minor success, he moved on to single-seater racing cars, and progressed steadily up the ranks to the International Formula 3000 championship by 1989, where although often competitive he never won a race. Hill became a test driver for the Formula One title-winning Williams team in 1992. He was unexpectedly promoted to the Williams race team the following year after 1992 champion Nigel Mansell's departure and took the first of his 22 victories at the 1993 Hungarian Grand Prix. During the mid 1990s, Hill was Michael Schumacher's main rival for the Formula One Driver's Championship. The two clashed on and off the track; their collision at the 1994 Australian Grand Prix gave Schumacher his first title by a single point. Hill won the 1996 World Drivers' Championship, but was dropped by Williams for the following season. He went on to drive for the less competitive Arrows and Jordan teams, and in 1998 gave Jordan its first win. Hill retired from racing after the 1999 season. He has since launched several businesses as well as making appearances playing the guitar with celebrity bands. In 2006, he became president of the British Racing Drivers' Club, succeeding Jackie Stewart.
