In the hands of Fernando Alonso , Aston Martin has been the surprise package of the 2023 F1 season, with Alonso sitting third in the standings behind Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez . The two-time world champion also kept Aston Martin one point ahead of Mercedes in the constructors' championship with five podiums in sixth races. Last weekend, only a stunning final sector allowed Verstappen to keep Alonso from pole. In a mixed-weather race, the Spaniard looked to retain an outside chance to beat Verstappen until a wrong tyre call cemented Verstappen's advantage, keeping Red Bull's clean sweep of 2023 race wins intact.

A series of high-profile truck highjackings have come to the attention of Michael Knight, a lone crusader, and his faithful four-wheel companion KITT. With Devon's help, they quickly learn that the gang's leader is Dominic "Dom" Toretto, a street racer, mechanic, and ex-convict who lives his life one quarter-mile at a time. Boasting that Dom's Dodge Charger is no match for his turbo boost, KITT trash-talks his way into a street race. That's the premise for the latest video from Lampoonery!, a YouTube site dedicated to comedy mashups using AI and a little imagination. Crazy as it may sound, a "Fast and The Furious" Knight Rider episode would be fun to watch. Especially with Michael Knight going undercover with Brian O'Conner. Before you know it, KITT is lining up in a drag race with Dom's Mazda RX-7, Brian's Mitsubishi Eclipse, and some other cars, including an Acura Integra . KITT gets the jump on the other racers, easily cruising to victory. It's debatable that turbo … [Read more...] about Fast And Furious Mashup With Knight Rider And A-Team Is Pure ’80s Bliss
