Yeah, what munter said below

I was absolutely f**king gutted for Hill that day. I don't actually believe Schumacher was in control of himself when it happened. I just think it was one of those split second instinctive reactions.

I still have that race on VHS in the loft somewhere and his title winner in Japan when Murray started blubbing.
