The story was that when Gilles' manager Gaston Parent was negotiating with Enzo Ferrari, Gaston told Enzo that Gilles owned his own racing suit. Meaning to say he had his own gear. Enzo understood that Gilles owned his own suit, meaning that Gilles had control of the sponsors on his suit. Enzo reluctantly nodded yes. Call it a case of lost in translation. The pic below is of Gilles being interviewed by local auto journalist Jacques Duval. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Now that's a dedicated sponsor! Antonio Giacobazzi handles the shade for his man, Gilles Villeneuve. Image Unavailable, Please Login
