CLAY'S TRIBUTE TO GILLES
CLAY REGGAZONNI WROTE IN THE MONACO GRAND PRIX PROGRAM AFTER THE DEATH
OF DRIVER GILLES VILLENEUVE:

"DEAR GILLES
     I WAS SHATTERED TO LEARN OF YOUR TRAGEDY.  YOU WERE YOUNG, LOYAL,
IMPETUOUS, STRAIGHT FORWARD, AND YOU EXPRESSED YOURSELF IN OUR SPORT
LIKE NO ONE HAD DONE FOR YEARS.  i REMEMBER OUR LAST MEETING, WHEN WE
TALKED OF OUR SHARED PASSION: FERRARI.  FOR A LITTLE WHILE YOU BROUGHT
BACH MY LOVELY MEMORIES.  YOUR SPECIAL GIFT WAS TO BE SPECTACULAR
YET ALWAYS SPORTING; YOU WERE HELD IN SUCH AFFECTION BECAUSE YOU ALWAYS
GAVE THE MAXIMUM.  ANYONE PASSIONATE ABOUT MOTOR RACING WILL ALWAYS BE
PROUD OF YOU.
                                    ADIEU, GILLES
