Damon Hill's Sky F1 podcast appearance was a one-off

Damon Hill, the 1996 world champion, appeared on Sky F1's F1 Show podcast following the Brazilian Grand Prix, fuelling speculation about a return to the broadcaster. PlanetF1.com understands that the appearance was a one-off and that there are no plans for Hill, 66, to rejoin Sky F1's punditry lineup.

Hill left Sky at the end of the 2024 season after 12 years with the broadcaster. His departure came weeks after he likened Max Verstappen to Dick Dastardly, a comment that drew a fierce response online. Hill has since joined BBC Radio 5 Live as a commentator and pundit, and serves as an ambassador for Formula 1 and Williams.

Lead presenter Simon Lazenby welcomed Hill back to the podcast alongside Anthony Davidson, describing it as a rare appearance. Sky F1's presenting team has seen other changes in 2026, including the departures of Danica Patrick and Rachel Brookes.
