Phil Hill

Philip Toll Hill, Jr. (April 20, 1927 – August 28, 2008) was an American automobile racer and the only American-born driver to win the Formula One World Drivers' Championship (Mario Andretti, an Italian-born American driver, won the World Drivers' Championship in 1978). He also scored three wins at each of the 24 Hours of Le Mans and 12 Hours of Sebring sports car races.

At Le Mans he became the first American-born winner of the French classic in 1958. In 1961 he became the first (and only) person to win the Le Mans and Formula One World Championship in the same year, and thus hold both titles.
