“The car is shaking like a pig”– Former F1 champion Jacques Villeneuve slips coming into pit road while competing in Daytona 500

Former F1 champion Jacques Villeneuve spins while entering the pit road and goes further down in the pecking order.

Jacques Villeneuve made history when he became the only F1 champion to qualify for the Daytona 500 race. However, things didn’t start well for the Canadian race driver.

Villeneuve struggled at the end of the grid, and it got worse when he was coming for his first pitstop. The 500-year-old spun while coming into the pit road.

Though the car corrected himself, manages to straighten himself and reach his stall. In the meantime, Daniel Hemric jumped ahead of Villeneuve during the pit stop and so he gets the free pass during this caution.

Villeneuve will still get back onto the lead lap at the end of the first stage. As things stood during the publishing of this article, Villeneuve jumped up the order due to the free pass.
