i also am a Montrealer and couldn't care less about what happens with JV... Villeneuve has really f&%ked up his career and let down his fans. His TV appearances and music attempts are laughable. Big ego....small *****.

FredC- i agree with you totally. Most Canadian F1 fans would like it if he'd just fade away from racing altogether. Or better yet, move into the Natinwide series with Danika. Which could be a good thing for them considering the 60% jump in the viewer ratings they got with her in the boxcar. If they put JV in Nationwide they could appeal to the diehard French Canadian followers that JV still has, which are better suited to the boxcar racing anyways.
This may sound bitter, but JV has been an embarrassment for way longer than a champion

You guys are rough. His agent was most part of the problem from right after he won the F1 championship. His agent drowned him real bad and is responsible for the ego he had. Is it too late for him to make a come back, most probably but too bad he had to realize it so late.
