Villeneuve set for testing return (http://www.tsn.ca/auto_racing/news_story.asp?id=84972)


According to TSN F1 analyst Gerald Donaldson, Villeneuve will test for BMW-Williams at the Jerez circuit in Spain the week following the United States Grand Prix.



Villeneuve has been linked to a possible return with Williams in 2004 and reports surfaced this past week that he would be back behind the wheel next month, possibly in time for the Canadian Grand Prix.

In case anybody wasn't sure how I reaaaaally feel..... http://instagiber.net/smiliesdotcom/ups/DeNiro/pray.gif

In light of the fact that Montoya is going to McLaren until proven otherwise, I am hopeful that after a year off from his BAR experiences and, in my opinion, wasted talents, JV will come back on a mission with something to prove....... Full of Piss and Vinegar !!! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Jacques back at Williams?!?!?!? HA!

I'll believe it when I see it!!!!!!!! Besides, who is Patrick Head to define talent when there are many big guns on this very board that see him for what he really is???

:D

If he's still a top driver, and he's willing to work cheap, he'd be hard for Frank to turn down...

Go Jacks! :D

Jacques was the equal to Jenson last year when his car was working. And now Jenson is the Golden Boy this year. I think that Jacques still has the skill. And now that he is filthy rich, maybe he will drive better in a better car. I think he is certainly worth testing. In fact, he might be a bit more grateful this time around at Williams.

equal?

17 pts vs. 6 pts

7 pts finishes vs 2 pts finishes

A buddy of mine tried to convince me weeks ago that Jacques would be in a Williams before Canada, I thought it was just the Jagermiester talking.

imo Jacques is one of the top five in the world when properly inspired.

I'd like to see it happen for a couple reasons:

I like Williams but Jaun is leaving

I like Williams but Ralfie sucks

Williams have always been my fave, but Ralfie does suck. JV to replace him would be cool - not too confident though...

I want Webber in a Williams in '05... :thumbup:

I wouldn't know but it hasn't seemed to hurt him other than the occasional "I'm never drinking again" phone call.

If nothing else, you were holding up the good Commie doctor's end pretty well there Ank.

Ralf sucks? Exactly where did Ralf qualify and where did Monty the Hothead qualify? As far a Jack back to Williams.....that's rich.....testing and hard work can't get in the way of his being balls deep in a model, so what good would he do the team. BAR sure went to hell when he left :D

I'm all for JV getting a ride next year at Williams. I hope it happens.

Railbird

Yeah, Ralf sucks.

a qual lap at Monaco doesn't change that.

I still doubt JV gets a shot, but if he does out pacing Ralfie will be the least of his worries.

JV and Fisi if it were up to me. I love Fisi-cola, and would like him instead of Barrichello, but he should take what he can get

Heck, now I hope Villeneuve gets that seat next year, just so Mark Webber can keep up his teammate killer reputation.

The Fishifella is several years past due. He's beyond ripe and getting rotten.
