Villeneuve fury at callous thieves ‘with no hearts, no brains’ after statue of F1 legend stolen
Jacques Villeneuve condemned the mindless thieves who stole a bronze statue of his late father, Gilles Villeneuve, crafted by Jules Lasalle in 1982. The statue, a tribute to the iconic former Ferrari star, had stood outside the Gilles Villeneuve Museum in Berthierville, Quebec, since 1994. Shockingly, the statue was stolen by cutting it off at the ankles, leaving only the racing boots behind. Villeneuve expressed disbelief and outrage, questioning the motives of those responsible for such a heartless and brainless act. He emphasized that the thieves, in his eyes, were soulless and unworthy of being called humans, reflecting on the sheer pointlessness of the theft from both emotional and financial standpoints.
