Hyde Park in London will resonate to the tones of Jacques Villeneuve's BMW Sauber V8 when the French Canadian shows off his F1.06.

The former Champion is scheduled to demonstrate the Hinwil-built car for about half an hour on a 380-metre circuit on the Tuesday after next weekend's British Grand Prix. The UK is BMW's third-biggest market.

At the Silverstone race itself, however, Villeneuve is not expecting to shine.

"At the test we were not extremely competitive," he admitted, "but the track has some fun corners to drive even though I am not that fond of the chicanes."
