He is better than than Chilton who only got into F1 due to aon millions.

No, not even that. Chilton might be a tugger in F1 terms and doesn't deserve to be there, but he has wins in F3 and GP2. Hill hasn't managed a win in anything above FRenault level.

Wasn't aware Damon had been stripped of his title.

He is a Formula One World Champion.

Well the current one is Sebastian Vettel. All the others are former ones.

No, Vettel is the current Number One. Otherwise Vettel would only temporarily have one championship at any moment.

A bit fed up with this. Chilton got pole position and then won the Singapore GP2 race last year, as well as a win at Hungary. He's really not that bad and I don't see drivers like Gonzalez doing it, the ultimate pay-driver.

Don't get me wrong he's never going to set the world alight but there's no evidence that Josh would fair better. Hill's actually older than Max as well, which I acknowledge doesn't always mean a lot..

I've heard the holders of Number One being referred as World Champions, as acting World Champions and all the rest as "former".

You hear a lot of nonsense when it comes to racing.

I thought he lost the title to The Honky Tonk Man.
