Interview with Gilles Villeneuve's widow, Joann

Here's a great interview with Joann Villeneuve, husband of Gilles and father of Jacques. http://www.wheels.ca/news/an-interview-with-the-first-lady-of-canadian-racing/

That was a very good read.

Thanks for finding that.

Thanks!

Is it just me that teared up a little, reading about his mechanics getting the car ready?

And just because . . .

What a cool and classy lady. I loved what she said about finding a warm tire just taken off a car to sit on so she could warm up on cold track days. She's full of class and character.

I did get a bit choked up at that. Thank you very much for posting that. It was great to read. She seems like a very special lady.

You want to get choked up, see this. Gilles with family

I didn't expect that to be a nice interview. She's a classy lady. Doesn't place blame. No sour grapes. Hard to imagine.
