"This year I've been quicker in the rain," said Villeneuve, the 1995 Indianapolis 500 champion who drives the Lucky Strike BAR Honda. "This may be the first time they see racing in the rain at Indy.""Our chances of being that competitive this weekend are slimmer than they were in '95," he said. "But we're still going to give it a shot. You don't get into anything without trying, and we will want to do good and we'll just try as hard as we can"" Tell me what you think Have a super race week gp19 |

Except for the fact that he made a bone head mistake in Canada, he has done a good job in the rain.
In Canada and at the Nurburgring he was faster than the cars around him in the wet. If he stays out of trouble and doesn't have something break he could do well in the rain. |

Quicker in the rain???
Yeah, a reeeeeal good showing in Canada...
I'm not sure that JV is anything spectacular-ish in the rain. Pretty average. Pedro de la Rosa's pretty good in the rain though... |

Actually Ralf's girl, JV had the fastest lap times in the rain in Canada. I remember because the announcer was going nuts. Unfortunately for him, he was stuck at the end of a long train of cars with nowhere to go. So he took a big and stupid risk. And Ralf paid for it. Mind you, I think Ralf took a lot more people off when he was at Jordan than Villeneuve ever has, so maybe he deserved it .
