Sky Sports F1 signed up 1996 Formula 1 World Champion Damon Hill to their pundit roster for the 2012 Grand Prix season. He was an immediate hit and Damon has been providing fascinating insight since then. He never ducks a difficult question, and his forthright views have been a mainstay of Sky’s Formula 1 coverage, not to mention his off-the-wall Twitter profile.
Just before Damon sat down to his Christmas lunch, he sent over his thoughts on the 2019 season.
