Formula one: Ferrari to hold tribute for Villeneuve

Ferrari have said that a special event at the Fiorano circuit will be held on May 8 to mark the 30th death anniversary of the legendary racer Gilles Villeneuve, according to ESPN. The team said that Villeneuve’s son Jacques will be driving a 1979 Ferrari 312 T4, the car that gave the team the constructors’ championship.”It will be a fitting occasion to honour the memory of a man who will always have a place of respect in the history of Ferrari,” read a statement on the team’s website. “His memory is still vivid and his talent makes his name still hugely popular with our fans.”
