The first American F1 champ laid to rest. May his driving abilities from the past be bestowed unto future drivers.

I had the privilege and honor of meeting Phil Hill and talking with him at a few different events for MG's, and at the Monterey Historics.
Consummate gentleman.
We was so approachable, and willing to talk to anyone about cars and racing.
Another childhood hero past.
If you haven't read his racing autobiography, "Phil Hill: Yankee Champion," I urge you to do so.

A sad time as the pioneering greats depart this mortal coil - champ Phil Hill, driver and Lotus legend Ian Walker, motorsport photojournalist extraordinaire Bernard Cahier and now word that even the days of fave everyman Paul Newman are numbered.
