9. Jacques Villeneuve has been driving in the Formula one for quite some time now. His father, Gilles Villeneuve, was also a Formula one driver. He drove six seasons before his tragic accident that ended his life. Where did this tragic accident occur?

Answer: Zolder, Belgium

Grand Prix at Zolder: In qualifying, Villeneuve was on a hot lap when the dawdling March of Jochen Mass strayed into his path. Unwilling to lift, Villeneuve ducked inside but was launched over Mass' left rear wheel, the Ferrari instantly cartwheeling to destruction across the track, nose in the sand, flinging the driver out of the cockpit.

The suicide-in-installments that was Villeneuve's life had reached its final phase, driving Enzo Ferrari to tears and leading Villeneuve's own son, 1997 World Champion Jacques, to adopt a calculating and far different approach to the 'art and genius' of Grand Prix racing.

As Nigel Roebuck of Autocourse wrote in 1982, 'Gilles has gone, and with him the light of genius in Grand Prix racing. In time, of course, another star will emerge, but it will never twinkle with the same intensity again. We are back to normality once more.

The impossible cannot happen.' (from www.f1-grandprix.com)
