Top Gear - New series


Recommended Posts


It was a wind up mate. Shumacker would have been in England with the ferreri team for the English Grand Prix anyway. Top gear simply hired him for a few hours so they could test the ferreri and get the publics reaction.

 

we will see next week if he still has his helmet on, or not. I bet he does

Schumacher was just a wind up, Heiki Kovalinen was the stig when they had the renault f1 car, The owner of the Koenigsegg CCX drove that as the stig, and a lot of people in the know, have been putting the name Ben Collins as the real stig.

I too have heard that Ben Collins is the real stig (from a reliable source).

 

The Stig issue aside, wasn't that a cracking programme, seeing that Vincent Black Shadow race the XK120 and the Train was an excellent way to start the new series.

 

I know it came last but if i had to choose out of the Train, XK or Vincent then it would have been the Vincent by a mile.

 

When they were new they were the first production motorcycle to do 150mph, the factory had a test rider whos job was to take them out and crank them up to full chat, how cool a job that must have been in the 1940s/1950s when such a speed was beyond the dreams of mere mortals.

 

Excellent programme and good to see the boys back at play
