I hope they get a new one in for the new series, it ruins it now that we know who he is for a whole series!
i didnt say it was, did i
just not entirely convinced, like littlemissy
I can't believe so many people fell for that shit.
The Stig's been a whole host of people i reckon, dont think its sver been just one person.
I think they did. I think he took that ferrari around the track hence why it was 7 seconds clear of all the other times. Makes sense what with him being a ferrari advisor.
The Ferrari was worth over a million quid and Ferrari are protective of their cars at the best of times. Schumacher is Ferrari's special adviser and test driver, so I expect Ferrari insisted Schumacher had to drive it.
There isn't one Stig, they have different drivers depending on what he's driving and where he's driving it.
It's well known throughout the car/racing scene, and also he did some driving for Top Gear between the Black Stig (Perry McCarthy) and the White Stig. He was not wearing the full face helmet and he was also credited by his full name.
Schumy was indeed a stunt. A good one, at that!
Yea, people should bear in mind it is an entertainment programme, everything that goes wrong (like when they set the caravan on fire) is all carefully pre-planned. It's made to look like it's real because it's more exciting that way.
With the exception of hammond trying to do summersaults in the rocket car.
The initial plan was also for Clarkson to be on the locomotives footplate as far as Grantham where he was then to clean up and relax through to the end of the trip, instead he actually stayed up front the whole way and apparantely worked his arse off!
That is such a good book!! :yippe:
That's what I thought. I know there have been several Stigs, but I'm pretty sure they only have one actual driver as him at a time.
No, a lap in the Liana.
Yep.
And the Stig who did the ski jump on a snowmobilde was a different driver too.
Ferrari let you buy the car, but then they keep it in the factory, you can only hire your own car out for track days etc...
Did you not read the thread? It was a stunt.
