Damon Hill has been handed the Lifetime Achievement award by Motorsport UK to celebrate his F1 career.
The 64-year-old enjoyed nine seasons in F1, most of which was spent at Williams where he won his sole F1 title.
Hill made his debut on the grid in 1992 for Brabham before switching to Williams the following year.
His period at the Grove-based squad saw him consistently compete towards the front of the field, coming agonisingly close to winning the title in 1994 amid a battle with Michael Schumacher.
Having finished runner-up in 1994 and 1995, Hill sealed the F1 title in 1996 and joined his father Graham as an F1 title-winner.
The Briton switched to Arrows the following year before moving to Jordan in 1998 where he scored the Irish team's first-ever grand prix win.
He departed the F1 grid after the 1999 season but continued to involve himself in motorsport.
Hill has most recently been associated as a pundit for the Sky F1 team, joining the broadcaster in 2012 and working up to the end of the 2024 campaign.
As a result of his achievements, Hill was recognised by the British governing body and collected the award, succeeding fellow F1 champion Nigel Mansell who was honoured with the same accomplishment 12 months ago.
