Jacques Villeneuve: a pundit with a point or two
Former world champion Jacques Villeneuve tells Glenn Freeman that he's looking forward to his Sky F1 TV debut in Canada this weekend, and that he's ready to say what he sees…
Jacques Villeneuve is making his debut as a TV pundit this weekend, as a guest 'expert' on Sky's UK Formula 1 channel for his home grand prix. On paper, it looks a shrewd appointment. The 1997 world champion was never shy of speaking his mind when he was racing in F1, so he's hardly going to hold back coming into the paddock as more of an outsider.
However, turning up and producing a few headline-grabbing comments off the cuff is one thing, and being able to maintain the interest of an audience over three days is quite another. It would appear the former Williams, BAR, Renault and Sauber driver has been brushing up on F1 2012, but just because he's done his homework doesn't mean he's any less forthright with his opinions.
