Hill not sure drivers should be full F1 stewards

Updated



Damon Hill is no longer sure former drivers should be acting as full FIA stewards at grands prix.

The 1996 world champion said he has been receiving "hate mail" ever since he and the three regular stewards signed off on a 20-second time penalty in the wake of Michael Schumacher's late pass on Fernando Alonso at Monaco.

In 2010, a new initiative by new FIA president Jean Todt has seen former drivers including Alain Prost, Alex Wurz, Derek Warwick and Johnny Herbert act as stewards.
