June 15, 200816 yr comment_250827 They lost it in the pits - Peugeots spent more than 9:00 minutes longer than did Audi, yet finished ~3:00 behind - Minassian's choice of tires near the 50:00 mark was odd too...

June 16, 200816 yr comment_250914 Too bad for Peugeot teamagain.. Car is twitchy in the rain...The Audis were better on fuel also, one more lap on a fuel tank as opposed to the Peugeots..But i'M proud of My J. Villeneuve.. They will come back stronger next year..

June 16, 200816 yr comment_250928 Don't ya think Nissan should campaign the GTR? As much as I like Johnny O, I was glad to see the Astons beat the Corvettes.

June 16, 200816 yr Author comment_250975 I don't know how those guys can do 3 hours lap after lap after lap. I was also bummed Jacque Villeneuve didn't get the win but maybe he needs to drive for Audi.

June 17, 200816 yr comment_250976 But i'M proud of My J. Villeneuve.. They will come back stronger next year..Jacques is my twin - it's scary how much we look alike, my wife and kids crack up. Right down to the posture. In fact, when we went to the Canadian GP a few years back, I was curious as to why people pointed at me and called me Jacques!I never thought I looked like him until that day in Montreal. I am a lifelong fan of Gilles Villeneuve (Jacques dad), but never took to Jacques until recently.I was really bummed for him - he seems genuine and he's good looking (since he looks like me, hehe)...get 'em next year JV!!!
