I suppose it depends how you define daddy's boy.

That minor detail aside, you can't help but wonder whether he'd have had the career he had without the surname.

But what a career. Such is life. But I think Jacques more than justified himself.

Please don't mistake me for a Jacques fan!

Oooo! We could all do without Rogers internet. I think they mostly use Videotron in Quebec too.

He was a pretty good pilot in his own right and no doubt his surname helped him into motorsport much like Damon and Nico. Jacques accomplished more than his father and I think Gilles would be proud of what his son achieved. Jacques may think F1 is boring now and doesn't watch any of the races as he admitted a couple of months ago, but its nice to hear he is offering his experience as a pundit to a few viewers on the less watched channel in the UK this weekend.

After spending years of my life in Canada, I would honestly support an Anarchist or Maoist revolution if it meant the end of Roger's.

I think if Maoists or Anarchists went on the ballot with the platform promise of banning Bell and Rogers that they would win.
