F1 Fans React to Damon Hill's Exit and Danica Patrick's Stay

Former F1 champ Damon Hill is calling it quits after 13 years at Sky Sports F1. Fans are upset that he's leaving, but they're even more heated that Danica Patrick is sticking around. Hill, who won the 1996 Drivers' Championship, made a surprise exit announcement via social media. He thanked his colleagues and hinted at new challenges. Fans are divided. Some applauded Hill's contributions, while others criticized Sky Sports for keeping Patrick. Patrick, a former IndyCar and NASCAR driver, has sparked controversy with her views on women in motorsport and her comments on the W Series. She once said, "Good racing is what matters, not just having women drivers. " Patrick also faced backlash for calling F1 a "masculine" sport and for her podcast discussing sensitive topics.On social media, fans vented their frustrations. "Sky Sports is a joke for keeping Patrick while letting Hill go, " one fan tweeted. Another said, "I'm sick of listening to Patrick's controversial views. Bring back Hill! " It's a tough decision for fans to swallow. Should Sky Sports prioritize ratings or listener comfort? And where does Patrick fit in the controversial conversation?
