Nice night to pursue one husky driver (5)
I believe the answer is:
inuit
'husky driver' is the definition.
(could be someone who owns huskies)
'nice night to pursue one' is the wordplay.
'nice night' becomes 'nuit' ('night' in French - spoken in Nice).
'to pursue' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'nuit' after 'i' is 'INUIT'.
(Other definitions for inuit that I've seen before include "A North American eskimo" , "found in Greenland" , "Dwellers in the furthest north of America" , "Greenland Eskimo" , "native of the North" .)
