    If you're the son of a motorcycling world champion, drive a tank in WW2, race bikes yourself and spend the rest of your life commentating on motorsport, then you're not going to be a slouch behind the wheel.

    I watched them film this live. I stood on a corner with a union jack about half way round the track and managed to get a wave from Damon... Can't see it on the footage but I remember they did a few laps. I think it was on a Thursday if I remember rightly, could have been a Friday, obviously it was a while ago now.

    • @MadKingJorge

      Friday would have had practise and Hill remarks that he wasn't allowed to drive on it yet, so probably Thursday.

    The thing that surprises me is that Damon isn't a better passenger than he seems to be here. My "riding" ability depends on how much confidence I have in the driver. Damon knows Murray very well, so it's puzzling.

    • @Drenwickification
      @Drenwickification  3 роки тому +2

      I know what you mean but it could also be because there were lots of people on the track so he was just concerned about that. And even despite Murray's motorsport background of having competed himself on motorbikes, he was still quite old here.

      Yeah I think Murray was actually a kind of father figure to Damon. Knew him as a boy and obviously saw what happened to his father which must have been traumatic for Damon. I’ve never read much about their relationship but I get the impression he always followed him closely and looked out for him as Damon was growing up.

    • @Kibouo
      @Kibouo 3 роки тому +3

      @@Drenwickification Yes, from what I know of him, he indeed was, he talked of a “soft spot” for Damon and was probably why he had a “lump in his throat” when he won the championship in 1996. He seemed like a father figure to many of the British drivers, his interview with Jenson Button was like a father catching up to see how his son was doing!
