AI Helps Improve Max Verstappen and Fernando Alonso's Performance- But It's Not What You Expect

Max Verstappen has been in stunning form this season with nine wins from the opening 11 races and is cruising towards a third championship. Another driver who has had a strong season so far is double world champion Fernando Alonso despite his recent struggles. The Spaniard has finished on the podium on six occasions this season but has failed to do so in his last three races. As both these drivers continue to perform at their best on the race track, their singing skills were recently put to the test by AI.

This is because ahead of this weekend’s Belgian Grand Prix, a Tiktok trend provided the drivers with some insight into their singing careers. On hearing their voices, it seems that both Alonso and Verstappen are impressed with themselves. Verstappen sang ‘Young and Beautiful’ by Lana del Ray, while Alonso sang Taylor Swift’s Enchanted.

Max Verstappen and Fernando Alonso react to their singing

On hearing his voice, Max Verstappen stated that this is how he would sound on a night out. However, he stated that his voice is only good as long as the DJ is playing the music. And if one were to actually record his voice, he believes it is “absolutely terrible“.

When it came to how the AI was singing in his voice, the 25-year-old was all praises. He said, “If I could sing like this, I would be happy with that. The AI is nice to me. He’s my mate“.

Similarly, Fernando Alonso also expressed his delight when he heard the AI sing a song in his voice. He began with a laugh before adding, “Not bad“. With fans now having heard the reactions of both Alonso and Verstappen to their AI voices, they will also want to hear the thoughts of the other drivers.

Fans have also created multiple audios of Charles Leclerc among others

Similar to how fans created songs in the voices of Max Verstappen and Fernando Alonso, they have also done the same for Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris. The Monegasque can be heard singing Arctic Monkey’s “I Wanna Be Yours” in the audio below.

Moreover, fans have also created a similar audio of Norris, who can be heard singing the same song as Leclerc.

When it comes to Leclerc, there are other songs that have also been recreated in his voice. Both the other audios are from American pop star Taylor Swift.

The first one is ‘I Can See You, while the other is This is Me Trying’. Now it will be interesting to see if both Norris and Leclerc provide reactions for their own audio or not.
