Villeneuve set for commentary role

Wednesday 30-January-2013 08:02

Former Formula One World Champion Jacques Villeneuve has agreed to work as a commentator for Sky Italia in 2013.

The Canadian will be on air at all of the season's races and will be joined in the commentary booth by Ferrari test driver Marc Gene.

"It is something new for me," Villeneuve told Sky Italia's website.

"Watching the races on TV, sometimes I would get angry about what others are saying. Now maybe someone will get angry at me.

"I certainly won't mince my words," he added. "I will bring my experience and as a driver and hopefully be interesting."
