Summary

Karun Chandhok and Edd Straw join Glenn Freeman to revisit the summer of 1996, when Williams decided to drop championship leader Damon Hill for 1997 in favour of Heinz-Harald Frentzen. We look at what was going on behind the scenes at Williams, and put to the test some of the theories Hill has expressed over the years for why the team that gave him his big break in F1 decided it didn't want to carry on with him any longer.
