Due to Michael Schumacher's disqualification from 1st place for excessive plank wear at the 1994 Belgian Grand Prix, is Damon Hill the only driver to win a race having never led a lap of that race? Schumacher led every lap of the race except lap 29 which Coulthard led.

That was the 7th and so far last occasion it happened.
 
Thanks. I couldn't think of a time since then and wasn't sure about before.
I had to double-check because I wasn't sure about Belgium 2008, but Massa did lead 4 laps non-consecutively as Hamilton and Raikkonen did their pitstops earlier.
