We're getting pretty excited about the return of Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May to our TV screens next month.
The former Top Gear trio gave the world a taste of things to come with an appearance on James Corden's The Late Late Show in the US ahead of the November launch of The Grand Tour on Amazon Prime.
Possibly because they're shit at singing or possibly because it's most fun seeing them tear-arsing around in fast cars, Corden tweaked the famous Carpool Karaoke format to accommodate Clarkson and Co.
As none of them has had a top 10 hit or a multi-platinum-selling album (that we know of), instead they were asked a series of questions while blasting around a desert racetrack in an obscenely fast car.
The concept was simple - do a lap as fast as possible while answering simple trivia and funny and inane questions at high speed. Genius.
Corden's face was a picture as Clarkson flew out of the blocks like shit off a shovel.
While answering pub quiz questions, Clarkson was cheekily asked 'Do you miss Top Gear?'. The ex BBC presenter deftly dodged the question, replying 'ask me about Egyptian politics'.
May took his lap like he was popping down the shops on a Sunday for a pint of milk while Hammond replied 'crashing' when he was asked about his worst driving habit.
With Hammond winning the challenge, Clarkson could resist a cheeky dig, saying ''I'm still f**king taller than you.'
It's clear the three have still got the same old magic that made Top Gear such a brilliant show. Boy how we've missed the three of them.
And if anything this has made us even more excited to see them back together, ripping each other and pissing about in ludicrous cars. The Grand Tour drops on November 18.
