I think we can safely say that it won't be Ben Collins in the suit.
Wonder which colour suit they will go for this time? We've had black and white - so what's next? Pink? Yellow? Baby Blue?

I really doubt there is just one person who does all the driving. That to me was the whole point of having a figure to test on all cars etc. No one driver is going to be that good at all aspects imo. They said before there was about four people doing it.
But ws it not Ben Collins who was the first stig? Not read up on it much, but thought he was, as his name came up a few times years ago.

They killed the last one...nothing to suggest they won't kill this one off. Plenty of other drivers that can take the place.
They may just turn round and deny that Ben Collins was The Stig.
I think Collins is just a money grabbing waste of space. Selling out his story to make a few quid...he's no better than those tarts that shag a footballer and sell their story to the NOTW!
We are supposed to get our own American version of Top Gear this fall. I cringe at the thought. Adam Ferrara is a complete twit and Rutledge wood is mostly unknown, but complete uncultured bore ( a lot like Jeremy Clarkson in that respect I suppose). Tanner Foust is all right, although his big claim to fame is winning a national drifting competition and hosting a series over here call SuperCars Exposed, which was maybe a one season gig.
I don't know much about Ben Collins, but I hear Fisi is looking for a job. :lol:

Exactly, I've written my autobiography no-one know's who I am except I'm rumoured to be The Stig, that's it I'll sell it as The Stig, and collect my P45 on the way out (Prat).
Guess they'll just get some other good national level driver to do it and sign him to a watertight non-disclosure contract, which is what I guess they thought they had with Collins.
The next Stig?
Well, lets consider the qualities required:
- good driver
- semi/fully retired from racing
- not as quick as Barrichello
- ability to moan a lot
What about Nigel Mansell? He's advertising car insurance on TV at the moment so what not some extra work, and his head should fit in the helmet since he's lost the dodgy moustache...
