Jacques Villeneuve on Sunday secured his first win since his world championship year - 1997 - in formula one.

The French-Canadian, who left the sport's premier category two years ago, raced to victory for Peugeot in the 1000 kilometre Spa-Francorchamps round of the European Le Mans Series in Belgium.


Villeneuve said: "The weekend was excellent preparation for the Le Mans 24 hours and it was also very nice to win a race again. My last victory dated back to the 1997 Luxemburg grand prix!"



Nine years is quite a drought!

To use an old Southern phrase, "Bless his heart."

Must have been a nice break for Jacque not to hear the old favorite from his F1 days'....pit reporter asking...
"Jacques what put out?"

* I would prefer to see him in the American Le Mans series.
