The museum named in honour of Canadian racing legend Gilles Villeneuve is temporarily shutting down amid a legal battle with the late driver’s family over his memorabilia.
The museum’s general manger, Alain Bellehumeur, accused the Villeneuve family of squandering the Formula One driver’s heritage in a statement announcing the closure of the museum in Berthierville, Que., about 70 kilometres northeast of Montreal.
