25 years ago today....


A quarter of a century ago today, Canada's - and some would argue the world's - greatest race car driver was killed in a crash during practice for the 1982 Belgian GP.

Nigel Roebuck's obituary in Autosport appears here.

There's a moving homemade video on Youtube here.

The CBC's website has news coverage from Villeneuve's funeral here.

Wiki has information about his life and accomplishments here.

Norris McDonald had a nice piece in last weekend's T.O. Star Wheels section here.
