kitbash1 Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 Gone, but not forgotten. F1 was never the same again for me after he left. Salut Gilles.
sfhess Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 I remember him getting sideways coming off Pine Avenue then coming down the hill at LBGP. I have a great picture I took of this. A great driver, gone too soon.
Rob Hall Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 Yes, another great one. I've got a couple models of Ferraris he drove. Got a great coffee table book by Allan de La Plante on Gilles, it covers the era quite well.

I agree, kind of stopped watching after his death. I used to love watching his brother, Jacques race in CanAm at Mosport
