Hill hits out at old rival Schumacher

FORMER World Champion Damon Hill has hit out at his long time rival Michael Schumacher - claiming that he is a better driver than the Ferrari ace.

The Briton claims that even though the three-time world champion is very talented and the best of the current drivers, he himself could match him if he was still racing.

"Michael is definitely a very good driver, but you have to remember, he is only the same age now as I was when I started in Formula One," commented Hill.

"I think the age gap gave him advantage, But still I don't think he is as good as me."
