I am very sad to hear that Alex Zanardi has passed away. Throughout a life filled with challenges, he never, ever gave up and faced these challenges with resilience and strength & despite all of this, Zanardi always had the most positive outlook. Rest in peace, champion.

@For_Film_Fans And the Aston Martin DB5 he drove in the movie was the very one used in Goldfinger ( DP/2161/1 ) which was stolen in 1997 and never seen again!

ROGER MOORE parodies 007 as ‘Seymour Goldfarb Jr.’ — a nice Jewish boy who thinks he’s James Bond — in the 80’s action-comedy that did very nice box office (at $160million off an $18million budget). THE CANNONBALL RUN (1981)

@PaulMcG1992 I was there for that one! The crowd went nuts as it was the first Ferrari 1-2 at Monza for years, there were a couple of middle aged Tifosi behind us absolutely sobbing with joy. Drove down from the UK in a Lancia Delta too 👍🏻

@ClassicSpyChic There’s a VERY quick moment where one of the baddies shoots at the Land Rover through the Alfas rear window. I watched that being filmed at Pinewood. It’s crazy how much work went into about 1 second of screen time
