Gilles Villeneuve: the driver who changed everything in Quebec

Gilles Villeneuve never won the Formula 1 world title. Yet, he remains the most beloved driver in F1 history, universally recognized for his courage, flair, and absolute refusal of calculated caution. Born in Berthierville, Quebec in 1950, he carried Ferrari's colors with a flame few drivers have matched in the entire history of motorsport.

The Canadian Grand Prix: a Quebec institution

Every June, hundreds of thousands of spectators from around the world flood Montreal for the Canadian Grand Prix. Fans coming from Quebec form a loyal and passionate group. Carrera Café is their coffee for preparation and return: starting the weekend with a good espresso from Quebec and ending it the same way.

Coffee and Quebec pride

Just as Gilles Villeneuve wore Quebec's colors on the world stage, Carrera Café proudly carries Quebec's artisanal coffee culture. A local brand with values of excellence, serving passionate people who never do things halfway.
