Much like his father, Jacques is a legend. He's won the Indy 500, F1 World Championship, and got second place overall at the 2008 24 Hours of Le Mans. He has truly continued his legendary father's legacy, and may he have more success in the future!
He also seems like a smart guy, and he's even good looking too! (why are all of these F1 drivers so good looking?! Is there some kind of unwritten rule?)
It's funny because he almost has a reputation as being a controversial figure, but when you see him interviewed and is allowed to express his thoughts in full (beyond headlines), he comes accross as kind, reflective, and quite intelligent. Wonderful grand prix driver too (at least for the first two years)
imagine being an F1 driver, beating one of the greatest F1 drivers to race in the sport, winning a world title, but being known to have played 20 straight hours of dungeons and dragons
Like his personality, determination and confidence. What I love about him is the positive attitude to take challenges. A very unique driver online his own from the new fan from Indonesia.
@@johnandrews3568 Um … did Gilles ever win a world championship? Did Gilles ever win at Indy? Did Gilles ever take part in the 24hrs at Le Mans race (and manage to finish 2nd in his first attempt). No, but his son did. That comparison is so old and tired - give it up.
I see the same tires old comparisons between Jacques and his father. But did Gilles ever win a world championship? Did Gilles ever win at Indy? Did Gilles ever take part in the 24hrs at Le Mans race (and manage to finish 2nd in his first attempt)? No, but his son did. Gilles was a brilliant driver, but so was his son.
@@fifthbusiness1678 Nope, JV was just gifted the best cars on the grid EVERY TIME. DO you remember his BAR days? Total crap driver. Ferrari gave Gilles mostly Dump trucks and he could podium and win and FWIW Gilles could have become WC in '79 had he decided to NOT follow team orders. He's 1000X the driver his slacker, spoiled kid ever could be.
you know what i don't agree with you, every guys in the garage of BAR Honda or BMW Sauber did tell that the were missing him so much, because he was a very great developer, he gave hope to them that they could be a little good some day... so...
Les connaisseurs savent que la triple couronne est ce qu'il se fait de mieux pour un palmarès chez un pilote. Il s'agit de remporter le championnat Cart, Championna du monde de F1 et Les 24H du Mans. Villeneuve a presque réussi celà en terminant second au Mans. L'important n'est pas le nombre de course dans une même série mais la diversité des titres. Et de ce côté là, très très peu de pilote ont connu un tel succès. C'est ça un grand pilote, un racer...
Villeneuve a développé la BAR. Regarde l'évolution, et tu comprendras! Il a fallut 5 ans à schumacher pour remporter le premier titre, et lui était entouré des meilleurs (Ross Brawn, Jean Todt, Rory Byrne). Donc là, tu n'as pas étudié ton sujet...Pour Renault, il est revenu après une longue absence, pas en forme, et regarde les perfs de la Renault, même avec Alonso, elle n'était pas très compétitive du tout :)).
Jacques Villenuve will share driving duties with Jim Pace and Elliott Forbes- Robinson in the No. 50 Highway To Help BMW Riley at Daytona later this year.
En ce qui concerne Massa, Villeneuve a dominé durant tte la saison aux points, Massa a eu la chance de le dépasser d'un petit point lors du dernier GP. Pour Heidfeld, saison incomplète. On ne peu pas juger. Et Kubica, a part son coup de chance, il n'a pas démontré être plus rapide. Loin de là vu ses erreurs au premier GP. Et sur le reste de la saison, il n'a pas marqué autant de points, si on fait la moyenne avec ce que JV avait déjà fait.
C'est que ce je disais, avant 94, le pilote pouvait faire la différence. Et si pour toi l'endurance n'est pas une référence, alors que crois qu'on ne pas pas pouvroir se mettre d'accord là :D
Why do french people get offended when you dont do something they're way, if he wants to have the name of his restarauant a english version, ITS HIS DECISION!
It's not ALL French people. Far from it in fact. Even the ones who said that they thought it should be in french may not actually be upset about it, rather just expressing an opinion about what they think it should be. It doesn't mean that they're "upset". I lived in Montreal for nearly a decade, and I had many separatist friends, and every single one of them was very chill and didn't even seem to mind that my french was terrible. The French (or "Quebecois") there were overall very chill. You might want to look up "false polarization effects" to learn more.
Second au Mans, certe, ce n'est pas une victoire. Mais Victoire aux 1000km de Spa. Et sinon, tu devrais savoir que pour gagner, il faut bonne voiture de nos jours...Schumacher, sans une voiture performante, n'aurait jamais gagné un seul titre, pareil pour Hamilton, Hakkinen, etc...Seul Alonso a battut Schumacher avec une Renault inférieur...En ce qui concerne la période avant 94, là oui un pilote pouvait encore faire la différence...Mais il fallait tout de même une voiture compétitive...
"These are the best fans anywhere." -Lewis after every race. Lewis is a great because Daimler threw billions of dollars into F1 to build the best car. Put any great driver in that mercedes and they'll win.
this is one of those reason alot of Canadians have a problem with some of the Quebec'rs. Upset that he didn't use his french Canadian name for his restaurant, are you kidding me? who fuckin cares!!? Guess what Quebec your part of Canada and our history. Infact an important part, but shit there are more important things than these trivial things they always bring up. Be proud of your french Canadian history but stop with the bitch games.

Sorry a very unique driver on his own...
Thanks for the GP win Jacques !! you made us proud !
Respect Jacques!!!
I miss JV the guy had personality. Something sorely lacking in F1 today.
THE MOST ENTERTAINING DRIVER TO EVER RACE IN F1 HISTORY
um... you never saw his dad race? He was 1000X the driver JV could ever hope to be.

"I always thought my father lived his dream and died happy"
Villenuvue's replacement (Robert Kubica) crashed at Villenuvue's home track in 2007 and won a year later on the same track.

I've played cm 96 for almost 34 hours straight ...
I would love to hear jacques talk about his father, he always seems really hesitant on the subject.
Totally agree

I like Kimi, but the guy is known as the ICE MAN for a reason.

The F1 Legend, the Honda F1
of course. but best drivers end up in the best cars.

No one cared. The media isn’t the people. If you know anything about Qc, the media and politicians love to stir things up.
Montoya is not even closely the same generation. Now if you've said Hakkinen, Hill, Coulthard, Irvine etc. that would have made more sense.
00:53 between his head?... XD les quebecois ces les meilleur

Kimi fucking Räikkönen?
"perfect sport on television"
Nascrap? Give me a break! obviously they haven't seen bike racing(all forms)!
are you guys speaking french or quebecois?
Στρουμπουλοπουλος :ρ
Kewlios
lol hamilton is the most boring. listen to the guy talk and all you hear is thankyou sponsor thankyou team thankyou sponsor blah blah blah.
You can die doing anything.
Lewis Hamilton and Alonso are anything but boring.
