Subject: Villeneuve writes off Hill chance


Jacques Villeneuve ruled Damon Hill out of the race to be Formula One's next world champion. Villeneuve, second to former Williams teammate Hill in last season's championship, believes this time he will take the title. Villeneuve told BBC Radio 5 Live: "I don't think he's going to be an opponent but he is very good. I don't think the whole package is ready to win - allthough I'm sure they could surprise us once in a while."
