The 2000 Formula 1 season marked the second year for Jacques behind the wheel of a BAR Lucky Strike Honda. Jacques finished 7th in the Championship with 17 points, his best finish was 4th and he achieved that on 4 separate occasions.
This Bell Dominator helmet was painted by Bell SPORTS Europe and is marked 2000-15. Bell staff also added a small decal of the Italian flag to the back signifying the helmet was used during the Italian GP weekend were Jacques qualified 4th but unfortunately had electrical issues during the race and retired after only 14 laps. The helmet shows very nice use and as per all of JV’s helmets it has had extra foam added to the eye-port and the vents have been taped off. The full race radio remains intact and the drink tube has been drilled out and a fresh set of tear-offs have been applied to the visor which is signed by Villeneuve. Also included is the original Bell carrying bag with “J.V. 00-15” handwritten annotations.
This item is from Jacques Villeneuve’s personal collection and will come with his signed LOA.
