Phil Hill had that indefinable quality that so few modern day sports figures have - CLASS. The world is not the same without him, nor will it be when Paul Newman passes.

Terrible news - I hadn't heard this. Phil Hill was a racing icon and one of the few American drivers to compete on a world class level. Let's hope Mario Andretti continues to be in good health.
