Even if he doesn't win, though, a good showing could prove invaluable. Villeneuve has dropped hints that he may be try to run the IndyCar series full-time next year, and that would turn the Indy into quite an audition. Mayfield left the game with 73 passing yards, one interception and one touchdown. Jayhawks fans made their voices heard in a 57—56 overtime win against Texas on Saturday.
Georgia remains No. The Washington DE suffered the injury midway through the second quarter of Sunday's contest vs. His story has since gone viral and even gotten the attention of one NFL quarterback.
D'Ernest Johnson has a great opportunity to flex his skills with the Browns' depleted at running back. Home Racing. It's only reinforced when he begins to speak. Then he'll talk about the speed and the danger. At least, it was until this year.
But the lure of Indy started to tug him back. Some observers think Villeneuve's outburst may come back to haunt him. Campbell is a Villeneuve booster, but warns that Jacques has increased the pressure to win the world championship as is expected of the number 1 Williams driver.
They have been running races through the principality's twisting downtown streets, crammed between the seafront and the mountain, since Elegant bars overlooking the Mediterranean resound with foreign accents and the clink of champagne glasses. And crowds converge on hotel parking lots to peer at Europe's finest sports cars: brightly colored Ferraris and Lamborghinis with front ends lower to the ground than a vacuum cleaner.
When the driver of a four-door rental car has the temerity to toot his horn to get through the gawkers, a British voice yells out: "Relax buddy.
You're driving a Fiesta. The atmosphere at Monaco has changed along with F1. Fatal accidents ended the days when spectators could line the sidewalks behind simple guardrails Monaco's most famous car crash - Princess Grace's fatal plunge off a cliff - occurred just outside the principality's borders. Balbo ran the Chatham Bar from until it closed last year. The bar was better-known as Rosie's, and was one of the places where drivers used to gather to relax.
Now, it's all professional secrets and money, money, money. The soul is gone, and that's a pity. In a tent set up in the harborside paddock to block out any snoopy competitors, the Williams engineers fine-tune Villeneuve's car. The gleaming beast sits on an elevated stand, seemingly more a patient in an operating theatre than a machine in a garage.
Laptop computers crunch data. No oil streaks the blue shorts and T-shirts of the Williams engineers. The car snorts to life when they fire up the engine, and every press of the accelerator emits raging screams as if wounded animals were being gored. Nearby, Frank Williams uses a pause in the racket to talk about Villeneuve. He is using his brain and courage to suck out what it takes to get around the track in that extra tenth of a second.
Villeneuve still complains that the Williams team sometimes pays more heed to the data than the driver. Too much is taken away from the human side, from the feel. A steady rain was falling two days later when the drivers lined up to start the Monaco race. Most drivers chose to run on treaded tires, giving them added traction on the wet pavement. But the Williams team relied on a weather forecast predicting the rain would stop. They stayed with "slicks," the bald tires that add speed on dry surfaces by putting more rubber on the road.
When the green light flashed, Villeneuve slipped and spun as if he were on ice, falling quickly to the back of the pack. He never finished the race, retiring midway through after sliding into a guardrail. Until Villeneuve, Canada had a limited history in Formula One.

In Canada, Wolf is best-remembered as the shadowy figure who helped fund Brian Mulroney's conquest of the Tory party in the early s.
He still travels the world on business his Wolf brand cigarettes are big in Bosnia , but he has long left the Formula One world. Villeneuve is clear that he considers himself Canadian. He is also the latest athlete in a line from the Crazy Canuck downhillers to Canada's ferocious hockey players who challenge the myth that Canadians are a cautious, colorless people. Skier Steve Podborski understands the rush Villeneuve gets from speed. Podborski met Gilles Villeneuve on a French ski hill in , and the two became friends.
He remembers year-old Jacques whipping him in a video game of Space Invaders. Guys like Jacques are elite athletes.
And pushing. They have that whatever-it-is to miss trouble. They have," he says, "the magic that lets them pull it off. But, of course, sometimes the magic deserts them. It abandoned Gilles Villeneuve that day in Zolder. And it was not around for two-time world champion Jim Clark at Hockenheim, Germany, in The statue's pose was taken from his mother's favorite photograph, showing Clark, hands shoved in his uniform pockets, striding through the pit lane.
Afterwards, Stewart and his wife, Helen, lingered so people could take their picture standing beside the image of their long-gone friend. Clark was 32 when he died. After the debacle at Monaco, Villeneuve stormed back with a crushing victory in Barcelona to retake the lead in the drivers' championship from Schumacher.
He won despite driving on tires that were blistering from the hot track, careful to push the car fast enough to stay first, but not to speeds that would have shredded the tires. Log in. Jacques Villeneuve was born on 15 March in Belgium, with severe physical disabilities. He cannot use his arms and legs as it developed unequally. He started to paint with his mouth at the age of six and has constantly striven to further develop this skill. Jacques attended the City of Tienen Drawing Academy, where he completed the upper secondary course.
