MONTEREY, Calif. (Aug. 28) - Phil Hill, the only American-born Formula One champion, died Thursday of complications from Parkinson's disease. He was 81.
The 1961 Formula Open champion and a three-time 24 Hours of Le Mans winner, Hill died at Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula, said friend John Lamm, a noted automotive photographer and editor-at-large with Road & Track magazine.

One of the all time great race drivers. RIP

"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."
