Villeneuve: Raikkonen title not deserved
"Kimi Raikkonen did not deserve the title he won in 2007 and he only secured it because he was lucky, according to former world champion Jacques Villeneuve."
Jacques Villeneuve says Kimi Raikkonen did not deserve his Formula 1 title - F1 news - AUTOSPORT.com
This coming from Villeneuve himself. Is he trying to be ironic? He seems to always be in the news.F1 Pickems Champion 2006, 2009

I think Jacques needed the money given for this story.
And besides I haven't heard of him for a few months.I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

Strange, as Kimi finished the season very strong to secure his title.
JV on the other than, won his last grand prix only when the two Mclarens in front of him expired. He even managed to get himself disqualified in one of the season ending races.
Get a mirror Jacques.

It was Villeneuve himself who didn't deserve his title. He had a dominant car and average teammates for two years and narrowly won the title after mediocre performances in a car that should have easily beaten the rest. He did absolutely nothing after that.

Well, JV isn't one to talk about not deserving to win a title. Schumacher was a much better driver than he was that year.
I see what he is saying about Raikkonen, to a certain extent, luck did play on his side. However, I feel that Raikkonen deserved the 2003 title and were it not for unreliability he would have got it, so the tides turned and he got what he deserved in 2003 4 years later.

They deserved their own title, but they had strong resemblance on how did they get the title more for lucky factor. Other than their winning season, they struggle. To know which one of them is better let them drive as teammate in one team, or join Webber racing Caravan.

Jacques just trolled the crap out of the F1 world. He's probably not getting much done in his "career" and plans on making some money by throwing mud on people who have achieved more than him. He's gone senile already. All I can say is:
It was on qualifying stage, he rolled the car and it was said that he won't be able to start the rally. But team managed to repair the car and he did start and dominated drivers like Rossel, Gryazin...
