The other Villeneuve champions

That being said, the thing I liked most about this event was the efforts of the Museum to showcase memorabilia of the other two great Villeneuves: Jacques (brother) and Jacques (son). Each one owns a special place in the heart of racing fans: the former never ceases to amaze us with his tenacity and toughness during his snowmobile races, while the latter hopes to add a victory at Le Mans to his impressive Indy Car and Formula One résumé. Only a select few have managed to win the automotive triple crown (Indianapolis 500, F1 Championship and the 24 Hours of Mans). The great Mario Andretti failed badly on more than five occasions.


Children's Wish

Outside the Bonsecours Market were a number of muscle cars from the Children's Wish foundation. The club organizes special events and activities to help sick children fulfill one of their dreams. A group of Ferrari owners had graciously lined their cars in order to increase the spotlight on this event.
