A Villeneuve racing team in F1 would be something that his late father would have loved! Such a pity that Gilles is not around - he was not only a special racing driver but also someone that was a real fan as well.

I've actually read that there were rumours around just before the time of his death that Gilles was planning his own team too for 1983, although apparently some prospective backers dropped out and that a return to McLaren was more likely at the time.
