Summary:Twice world champion and arguably the finest racing driver of them all, Britain's Graham Hill was killed in an air crash on November 29 1975. Hill began his career in 1954. He stayed on to become champion twice, to win the Le Mans 24-hour classic twice, to win the Indianapolis 500 and to win the Monaco Grand Prix no less than five times. In 1969, he broke both legs and was told he would never drive again. But he did.
