May 8th , 1982 a very Sad Day..
As you well know Gilles Villeneuve died on May 8th , 1982 at 1:52 in the afternoon on the Zolder race track. It is a very sad day for me , Gilles was my all time favorite driver, to this day still know one comes close to what this man could do with a car, his car control was amazing. It,s been 19 years already , here in Quebec we still talk about him all the time.
I hold Didier Pironi responsable for Gilles death (long story) so when Pironi died in a boating accident I was quite the happy camper. |
