The STIG

[Will1985]

Haha Mr Pig - great minds think alike.

I've just looked at the Caparo - seems that it is road legal.....anyone who tries must be insane!

 

[Wigsie]

Also, is the FXX able to drive over a speed hump? I think we should be told.

Quite, its not technically 'available' to the public either even the guys that were invited to buy one cant take it down to tesco to get bread and milk.

 

[Mr Pig]

Maybe they'll take it off the board next week. What do you think?

 

[Wigsie]

Once Schumacher and the entourage that accompanies him and the car from ferrari have gone, they probably will.

The Stig isn't one individual - he's SEVERAL different drivers depending on who is available for filming on the day. That's how the whole anonymity thing started in the first place.

Exactly !

I reckon its just the theme for this seasons guest interviews. Like they went from a single to a pair of guests.
Next week yet another Stig will reveal himself to the world after doing a lap in a quick car and will be another pro driver. Think this series is only 7 programmes so shouldn't be too had to get that many guests.

Possibly.

Could be. I am wondering where they'll go from 'revealing' Schumacher as the Stig

Would be interesting concept, but your right, using Michael Schumacher for the first may have made them peak too soon!

OMG FFS NO ONE TOLD ME TOP GEAR WAS ON TONIGHT

It's also repeated on Friday

Nah....they just did the whole thing as they got access to both Schumacher and the car and made a good story out of it...they can't top that in terms of quality of driver or novelty (ie Schuey doesn't make many UK telly appearances)....perhaps the car will also be at Goodwood

 

[Globalti]

Schumacher wasn't even wearing the Stig's overalls. The producers and presenters are just playing games with the viewers; they've got another six shows to keep the public intrigued.

He was wearing the same make of racing suit...Alpinestars...as standard Stig.

 

[Wigsie]

I'm still wondering why he didn't do a lap in the Liana...

He did didnt he? was a joke one was all over the place and almost ran over a camera man?
