I no I was joking, Im not british either I found out about the series from a Crazy physics teacher =PMaxTheReaper said:
I knew it wasn't The Stig as soon as they said they are revealing The Stig. I mean c'mon. They wouldn't reveal him. He will be a mystery that only the Top Gear team will know and the only way to find out is hope they release it on their deathbeds. *Thinks evil thoughts*
Hehe, I have to say, I've heard pretty much every name you can think of being associated to The Stig over a few seasons of Top Gear. If there's any consolation, Schumacher didn't even rank pretty high up there on our lists anyway 
Anyway, the whole James May idea does sound funny, but even Buster from Mythbusters could probably get a better time than Captain Slow.

Would it not be a joy if even the Top Gear three don't know...and its revealed to Jeremy to be a woman driver? Even better, a French vegetarian woman driver.

Honestly, when the stig began to lift off his helmet I nearly stood up and walked out. I was so glad to know it was a prank at the end.
Maybe they'll start doing this every week with a different celebrity. It'd be a cool running joke.

If May ended up being the Stig, after being on the show for so many years and having earned the tite 'Captain Slow', and driving in such a slow and cautious style, then give him an Emmy, Bafta and all Oscars. You could make a new award and call it the Oscaftmy (Or not?).lupe said:Hehe, I have to say, I've heard pretty much every name you can think of being associated to The Stig over a few seasons of Top Gear.

No way Michael is Stig, they even highlighted it how he works as an Formula 1 consultant for Ferarri, a representative for Bacardi, and still manage to drive for a TV show (No matter it's rating or view count). Personal opinion/hope? They bring him on again right at the end of the series, say for like a "You'll see us in the winter" goodbye, and the Stig just walks on stage.
It's great they've got such a prominent figure from F1, but I'd rather have the mystery.
No question about it, the man should be knighted if he manages to consistently switch from May to Stig every week, but I seem to recall May following Clarkson around the world for half the time between shows. That leaves him with a lot less time to actually 'go nuts' behind the wheel. But yeah, no matter, even if turns out that it's Queen Elizabeth herself behind that helmet, I'll probably still think of the Stig as the anonymous maniac we know and love.Conveant0 said:
May and Clarkson are both too fat to be the Stig, Hammond is too short.
Also the Stig is the second Stig, the first wore all black and was Perry McCarthy, but he was "killed off" in the first episode of season 3.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that. My only excuse is that I was tired. I have edited my post... Man I really didn't realise how cynical I become when I'm tired.Vanguard_Ex said:
it couldn't have been schumacher anyway, he's to short. in shots from previous eps where the stig and clarkson are seen standing together, he's nearly the same height as clarkson, who's 6' 5", and schumacher is waaaay shorter
