Lewis Hamilton took a cheeky jab at 1997 Formula 1 champion Jacques Villeneuve ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix. The dig came while the seven-time champion reflected on the enduring legacy of Jacques's legendary father, Gilles Villeneuve, after whom the track in Montreal is named.
When asked about Gilles Villeneuve during the press conference ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix weekend, Hamilton explained: "Yes, as much as I can say about it, I personally didn’t really know a lot about him, to be honest. I obviously knew about Niki [Lauda], more so because I got to spend a lot of time with him, and obviously, I had to learn and watch him when I was growing up.
