1996 World Champion Damon Hill has announced he is leaving Sky Sports F1, after a 13-season stint with the broadcaster. Hill has featured among its punditry panel since Sky Sports took on live broadcasting rights of Formula 1 in 2012, and he has confirmed the 2024 season will be his last with the channel. Hill has been a staple figure among Sky’s punditry line-up since the broadcaster arrived in Formula 1, and he has diversified his media career in recent years through appearances on Formula 1’s official channels via the F1 Nation podcast.
With 22 race victories to his name in Formula 1, he remains one of Britain’s most successful Grand Prix drivers and, upon winning the title, joined his father Graham in becoming the first father and son to both become Formula 1 World Champions. He paid tribute to those he has worked with over his stint with Sky F1, and Hill said he is looking forward to what is coming next in a message posted on social media. 👉 Martin Brundle grid walk: Classic moments and marvellous mishaps including Ozzy Osbourne, Megan Thee Stallion and Brad Pitt 👉 F1 jargon decoded: Breaking down what key Formula 1 words mean “Its been a fantastic 13 years with @SkySportsF1 but all good things come to an end,” Hill wrote on his X account.
