By on

Former F1 World Champion Jacques Villeneuve is set to return to NASCAR. Next moth, the Canadian will compete in the Nationwide Series race at Montreal. Villeneuve will drive the No. 32 Braun Racing Toyota.

Villeneuve said to the Canadian newspaper 'Le Journal De Montreal': "I'm really happy because it's a pleasure to race, but it's even more so to do it at Montreal.

"It could hardly be better to come to a race as important as this and with a good team that makes you confident. It's an honor to be given the chance to race a car that was driven this year by such great drivers as Kyle Busch and Denny Hamlin."
