JV to drive Ferrari at ceremony to mark Gilles’ death

[TedN]

Ferrari will mark 30 years since the death of Gilles Villeneuve in an event at the Fiorano circuit next month.

Villeneuve’s son Jacques will drive the 312T4 raced by his father when he finished second in the 1979 season.

When first contacted about this, Jacques reflexively replied, "don't we have test drivers for that?". :D

This is pretty cool. Hopefully his mom and sis can be there as well.
