Well done on this brief piece. Couldn't agree more. Just a note to add to this that on the 8th of May, it will be 22 years since the death of Giles.

The 8th of may is yet another sad day for f1 fans. Gilles was a great driver who always entertained the crowd.

He has and forever will be sorely missed.

RIP GV

I'm gonna change my Ayrton oriented desktop to a Gilles-oriented one tomorrow.

RIP Gilles, at least this time we got to see a little of his genius, in his son.

Giles was the racers racer, no doubt about that. We saw flashes of him both in Jacques, and we may see more, but that's another issue, but we also saw some flashes in Jean Alesi, who was the Giles of the 90's for me for his dedication, commitment and 11 tenths driving attitude.

R.I.P Giles Villeneuve
