Gilles and Didier Pironi

After Didier Pironi was killed in that power boat accident, his then girlfriend had twins and she named them Didier and Gilles.

Theoretically there is a picture of them in the January 12, 1989 issue of Paris Match (I just checked Google and I think that's what it said) but I've never heard of them since.

Does anyone know what happened to them and is the Pironi racing in F3000 now a relation?

is there a Pironi racing in F3000? They would only be about 15 now so still too young at the moment.

Is he in Euro F3000 or International F3000?

The one we're getting on Speed Channel. I have no idea which one that is, because we have never had it before. Pizzonia is in it, and a very good looking French kid named Olivier, and an Italian named Paolo something.
