Damon Hill’s hopes of the championship soar when he wins in Japan, putting him just one point behind Michael Schumacher, with only Adelaide to go…

But in Australia the title challenge ends in drama. The German driver collides with the barriers, finishing his own chances. As his Benetton limps onto the circuit he swerves into the path of Hill, his only threat for the title. They collide. The Williams tours to the pits, but suspension damage means Damon is out — and Schuey is champion. Speculation about whether he could be stripped of the title in the circumstances is finally quashed after the FIA decides that there are no grounds for punishment.
