He raced in F1 between 1970 and 1978 and is regarded one of the greatest drivers never to have won a World Championship. Peterson died on September 11, 1978 after suffering a crash at the start of the Italian GP.

Graham Hill was born in Hampstead, London. He is a double F1 World Champion (1962, 1968) and is the only man to have won the Triple Crown of Motorsport. Therefore he won the Indianapolis 500 (1966), the 24 hours of Le Mans (1927) and the Monaco GP in Formula One 5 times (1963, 1964, 1965, 1968, 1969).

Graham is also the father of Damon Hill, the F1 World Champion of 1996.

In November 1975, Graham was killed when his Piper Aztec aeroplane (which he was piloting at the time) crashed in foggy conditions over Arkley Golf Course in North London. Five members of the Embassy Hill team, including up-and-coming driver Tony Brise, also died in the accident.
