The Prince of Destruction, The Flying Canadian, the term "No Fear" was actually coined for him. Gilles Villeneuve started 67 races, retired or crashed out of about half of them and won 6 yet he still is the most bellowed of all Ferrari drivers. It's been 30 years since Zolder. Ciao Gilles.
Fantastic post . . .
ReplyDeleteEvery time I see Gilles these days, after I pick my jaw up off the floor (still, after all these years), I usually end up thinking "Ayrton who?"
