Just out of interest if he is why haven't BMW.Williams used it before in the same way that Ferrari use their (2) tracks?

What a star : testing in two places at once - according to several of the other Jacques test threads here he's in France tomorrow !

Ha!Ha!
Read the other Villeneuve threads. Welcome to ten-tenths but be prepared for some negative comments to follow. |

What is the real story here concerning JV is he going to be racing in F1 next season or what?. This has been going on now for sometime and as always when anybody from Williams is interviewed regarding this they wont say yes and they wont say no. My own view on this is if JV is going to return to F1 then i would love to see him behind a wheel of a Williams mainly because i think he still has what it takes to be a winner again and iam sure you all agree that we want all the quick guys up at the front end of the grid. For all we know maybe this whole Willaims and JV link has been sorted out months ago.

There was a representative of the Montreal press at Mosport this weekend who said that as far as anyone in Quebec had been able to discover, the likelihood of Jacques driving for Williams in this lifetime were roughly the same as the likelihood of Pierre Trudeau rising from the grave to win the next Canadian election. He said that he had seen the transcripts that people were claiming "proved" that Jacques would be testing and that they proved nothing. In fact, one of them had been altered significantly -- in fact it said, "after all, Nigel Mansell never actually retired, did he?"

Welcome to the forum... you have to forgive us for being cynical in our replies... its just that we seem to have a new Jacques thread everyday and more often than not they end up being closed because the discussions seem to swerve way of topic...
Now that i have told you the Jv-10-10ths history... Welcome to the forum KKGT have a rocking time in this rocking place!!! |

Anyone who has paid attention to the sheer volume and legitimacy of the numerous articles/statements/polls and FACTS and still doesn't give Villenueve at the very least a 50-50 shot of returning to either Williams or Toyota should seriously get their head examined. Especially with Dixon out of the running now as well! Is it that difficult to believe that a former world champion who has yet to drive a competitive car since he won the title would be given one last shot to prove himself!?

Sad indeed. |

There you go... I will believe when I see that happening. This "numerous articles/statements/polls" are close to nothing until it happens, now about "FACTS" is what I would like to see. Can anyone tell me where mr. JV is right now, but please, information with links, please.
I'll be glad if I see this man back in a F1 car, but just when it happens !! |

fact (fkt)n. Knowledge or information based on real occurrences. I am sorry, but I see no facts saying Villeneuve will drive for any F1 team next year, especially Williams. If you think I say such things because I hate JV you would be wrong. |

as Adam said... most of the articles have either been from Pollock saying he is talking to the "right teams" or journalists saying they talked to "people close to Williams"... nothing from Head or FW...

And why start multiple threads about the same supposed "facts" when one will suffice?
