Norman Graham Hill (15 February 1929 – 29 November 1975) was a British racing driver and team owner from England, who was the Formula One World Champion twice.
He is the only driver ever to win the Triple Crown of Motorsport—the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Indianapolis 500 and the Monaco Grand Prix.
He also appeared on TV in the 1970s on a variety of non-sporting programmes including panel games.
He liked painting in his spare time. Hill and his son Damon were the first father and son pair to win Formula One World Championships.
Hill's grandson Josh, Damon's son, also raced his way through the ranks until he retired from Formula Three in 2013 at the age of 22. Hill and five other members of the Embassy Hill team died in 1975 when the aeroplane he was piloting from France crashed in fog at night on Arkley golf course while attempting to land at Elstree Airfield in north London.
