Damon Hill drives his first Formula 1 car in Adelaide

Damon Hill got back behind the wheel of a Formula 1 car in Adelaide at the 2025 Repco Adelaide Motorsport Festival, for the first time since he won the 1995 Australian Grand Prix at the circuit.

Thirty years on from his win in Adelaide, Hill drove his first grand prix car at the 2025 Repco Adelaide Motorsport Festival – the 1992 Brabham BT60B Judd.

Hill entered eight Formula 1 races with Brabham in 1992, qualifying for the British and Hungarian Grand Prix races with the BT60B. Brabham folded following the 1992 Hungarian Grand Prix, meaning the team and the BT60B never made it to the season-ending Australian Grand Prix in Adelaide. Hill then raced for Williams in Adelaide from 1993 to 1995, winning at the latter. 

The BT60B was designed by renowned engineer Sergio Rinland and is powered by a Judd V10 engine, with the car featuring a distinctive pink and blue livery.
