Gilles Villeneuve in the Movie—Everyone knows how it ends, but not how it begins …
Fifty years after Gilles Villeneuve’s Formula 1 debut, the first feature film about him is being released—and, of all things, it leaves out his famous Ferrari years. “Villeneuve: Rise of a Legend” chronicles his journey from snowmobiling in Quebec to Enzo Ferrari’s doorstep: the years without money, without fame, and with a trailer as his home. His son, Jacques Villeneuve, said of the trailer: “It was hard to hold back the tears.”
Porsche 968 CS – Streamlined for Maximum Driving Pleasure
With the 968 CS, Porsche took a different approach than usual. Instead of going to great lengths to make a special edition lighter and sportier—but also more expensive—the company sold the “Club Sport” version for nearly 20% less than the standard production coupe. For fans, this resulted in a “true Porsche”; for critics, it was a fun car stripped of comfort and everyday practicality. Today, we know that the fans have prevailed. Our test drive makes it clear why that is the case …

But what do you do when, as a nineteen-time series champion, you have more iconic paint schemes than race cars on the starting grid? That's right: you just use them all. And so the Porsche 963, in the version fielded by......
Self-driving cars will replace classic cars
Of course, there are doubters and skeptics who don't believe that self-driving cars will one day dominate our roads. The technical and regulatory challenges seem too great, and a crisis of acceptance from the consumer's perspective is even conceivable. However, it is highly likely that driverless vehicles will become widespread, because the benefits attributed to them are simply too great: Better use of road space, personal mobility for everyone (including children and grandparents), travel......

A right-hand-drive Audi with Swiss license plates
I found this Audi with right-hand drive and Swiss license plates on Google Street View. I'd love to give you the exact location, but it's actually right in front of my parents' house, and I don't want to publish the address publicly. That's the whole blog post—still cool, right?
