Driver, Phil Hill
Hill is still the only American-born driver ever to win the F1 title, the most coveted in motorsport.
Hill was a pioneering American racer in Europe in the 1950s. As the first American Ferrari driver and the first American to win the 24 Hours of Le Mans, he played a major role in luring stateside fans from stock-car ovals to the twisty circuits overseas. The press called him “Mickey Mantle in a Ferrari.”
