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 K1 helmet was painted by Bell S.P.O.R.T.S. Europe and was tagged 2000-11. The helmet has also had the Austrian flag attached to the back by Bell SPORTS staff. This helmet has been photo-matched to an image of Jacques preparing to get into the car for qualifying. Jacques went on to qualify 7th and finish 4th, his best finish of the season. The helmet shows very nice wear inside and out. As per all of Jacques helmets the air vents have been tapped-off and a drink tube has been drilled. This helmet however has had the neck roll and radio removed, likely to be used in another helmet. No visor was present on the helmet so one of Jacques’ vintage BAR Honda visor was mounted on it and it is nicely signed by him on the top layer tear-off. Also included is the original Bell carrying bag with “JV 00-11” handwritten annotations. This item is from Jacques Villeneuve’s personal collection and will come with his signed LOA.
