British driver wants to take Michael Schumacher's world championship

Damon Hill has comically asked for Felipe Massa's phone number, after legendary Formula 1 journalist Peter Benoit stated that Michael Schumacher should be stripped of his 1994 Drivers' Championship and that it should instead be awarded to Hill. The 1994 title went down to the Australian Grand Prix, which hosted the season finale that season. Schumacher entered the weekend as the championship leader, whilst Hill was right in the fight. The finale ended up being one of the most controversial races in the history of the sport, as Schumacher turned in on Hill whilst the 1996 F1 World Champion tried to go down his inside.
