Graham Hill,
Celebrating his victory at the 500 miles of Indianapolis.
You know what, this is so much more than your regular celebration capture. What this is, is a way of life, a moral lesson, both for you and me.
Bette Hill is celebrating her husband’s victory on their backyard. Meanwhile, Graham and a young Damon hill are pushing Jim Clark in a tiny tractor, enough to make them seem like they’re having the time of their lives. What’s really interesting to know is that Clark and Hill weren’t even Lotus teammates this year, that didn’t happen until what, 67?
Graham Hill’s good mood & friendship values must have been something worth knowing. A great driver, a great friend, a great father.
When I wonder why I’m stuck in an era I haven’t even lived on, this is why.
