The last Sunday, may 8, they met 29 years after the death of Gilles Villeneuve in the Belgian circuit of Zolder. On their own merits, the Canadian is one of the best drivers in the history which has a title in his Palmares. Even without titles, we could consider it in that select group of teachers at the wheel. But as when we speak of geniuses words sometimes fail short, this time our tribute is using words to be one of his rivals.
Gilles was the hardest bastard that never competed, but it was completely cleanWith are words defined keke rosberg, champion of the world of formula 1 of 1982, to his great rival gilles villeneuve. For its part, Ferrari, called the Prince of destruction by its "mania" to work hard in their Ferrari mechanics.
Villeneuve was a fast, visceral, and above all very dramatic pilot. But beyond descriptions, to the Canadian we remember it moments of "madness" as the 1979 Dutch Grand Prix or perhaps one of the best battles of history for the Grand Prize of France of the same year along with Rene Arnoux. Sallut Gilles!
