F1 | Gilles Villeneuve driving blind Canadian GP 1981

Villeneuve had a minor accident that damaged his front wing. The wing flew up only to be stuck up in the air, blocking Villeneuve’s race-line vision. With his forward vision impaired, he used his peripheral vision to navigate using the yellow track markers as reference. After racing this way for minutes he used vibration on the ribbed curbing, to the point it flew off the car. This way he managed to keep control until the end of the race, without a front wing and under the rain. 0:00 - Intro 0:09 - Information 0:30 - Villeneuve driving with no view 1:46 - Frontwing falls off 2:10 - Replay
