Appassionatosi di automobili durante i primi anni di vita, diede inizio alla propria carriera sportiva partecipando a gare tra motoslitte nella nativa provincia del Québec. Successivamente passò alla guida delle monoposto, e nel 1976 vinse sia il Campionato di Formula Atlantic canadese che quello statunitense. Un anno più tardi la McLaren fece esordire Villeneuve in Formula 1 al Gran Premio di Gran Bretagna 1977; nel corso della medesima annata la Scuderia Ferrari, campione in carica dei costruttori, lo ingaggiò per le ultime due gare stagionali al Mosport Park (Canada) e al Circuito del Fuji (Giappone) in sostituzione di Niki Lauda. In quattro anni con la scuderia di Maranello fece registrare sei vittorie in Gran Premi e un secondo posto nel Mondiale 1979 alle spalle del compagno di squadra Jody Scheckter.
Morì in uno schianto a 225 km/h con la March di Jochen Mass durante le qualifiche per il Gran Premio del Belgio 1982. Villeneuve al momento del decesso era molto popolare tra gli appassionati, e da allora è diventato un simbolo della storia dello sport Fonte ( www.wikipedia.org )

GILLES VILLENEUVE
1950-1982
Villeneuve was a curious mixture of seemingly disparate personality types. Lauda wrote of him, "He was the craziest devil I ever came across in Formula 1... The fact that, for all this, he was a sensitive and lovable character rather than an out-and-out hell-raiser made him such a unique human being". Flying, snowmobiling or driving, he was a risk-taker of classic proportions. Yet his fellow drivers said that on the track he was scrupulously fair and did not put anyone's safety other than his own in jeopardy.
An absolute nutter on the racetrack, but a family man off it.

Gilles Villeneuve - Piece by Piece
This is my tribute to the great Gilles Villeneuve. Like Senna he was a magician behind the wheel and like Graham Hill he was extremely popular. Gilles sprung to fame after beating a number of drivers in a race. The whole of Europe sat up and took notice of this shy and fearless little French-Canadian.
Many people blame Pironi for his death, other blame his sometimes reckless driving style. However, all I know is he was a talented driver and could have been a world champion many times over.
'Show me a hero and I will write you a tragedy.'
I dedicate this to the honourable Gilles.
