Jacques opens mouth, provides insightful comment

Via Autosport:
Former world champion Jacques Villeneuve believes that of Formula One's three current title contenders, Robert Kubica is the most deserving this year.

The BMW driver closed to within 12 points of Lewis Hamilton and seven of Felipe Massa after finishing second in the Japanese Grand Prix, while both his rivals incurred penalties in a race where both made mistakes.

"The one who really deserves it now is Kubica," Villeneuve, who won the title for Williams in 1997, told BBC Radio 5 Live.

"He has not been in as good a car as either Felipe or Lewis yet he has produced a season without mistakes.

He's also blown the doors off his highly rated teammate and made a minimum of mistakes in his second season. What do you think? Can you spot a World Champion's vapour trail in the chart below?:

Just cause this post needs a comment...

Sure Jay, I'd love to have the opportunity to blog some racing stuff here, if you'd be interested. Especially stuff like my impressions of the new wings for F1 cars...

Especially check out the BMW front wings and the Williams rear wings.

I don't know if they're pretty, but they kinda have a neat retro feel to them.

Drop me a line at net.verizon@highway27 (backwards email address in case there are spam scrapers).
