Soggy bottom boys in Montreal


NASCAR Nationwide cars are in Montreal this weekend, at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, with Aussie Marcos Ambrose qualifying on the pole in the wet. NASCAR doesn't normally run in the rain - see PunchBuggy passim.
Ex-F1 World Champion Jacques Villeneuve qualified sixth in a Toyota. Villeneuve finished fourth in the recent Canadian Tire Series race at Trois-Rivieres on August 16th.
