Villeneuve "insulted" by comparison between his father and Verstappen

Jacques Villeneuve has responded to Niki Lauda's comments in which he compared Max Verstappen and Gilles Villeneuve, saying it's a "real insult" to him and his father.

It's safe to say that Villeneuve isn't Max Verstappen's biggest fan, as he previously stated that the Dutchman is still a child and overrated. When Niki Lauda compared Verstappen to Gilles Villeneuve, the legendary driver as well as Jacques' father, the Canadian had enough.

"I heard what Lauda said, it's a real insult," Villeneuve told Le Journal de Montréal.

The 1997 world champion sees more differences than comparisons between his father and the 20-year-old Verstappen.

We're still not sure what Verstappen has done to make Villeneuve dislike him this much, but it looks like he takes every opportunity he gets to fire a shot towards the Dutchman.
