"The team engage in a race from Wembley to the San Siro stadium in Milan, with Jeremy in a Shelby Mustang GT500 while Richard and James use the pan-European rail network. • Jeremy is out on the test track in the new Toyota GT86."

I wonder what would happen with these 'Races' if they weren't staged as fuck kind of ruins it for me.

Not Looking forward to Hammonds fake noises but am James making the show watchable

Well it's staged to an extent obviously, Jeremy said they planned these races so they would get there at the same time

Yep totally agree. If it wasn't staged it wouldn't work and would therefore be shit.
If anyone says they hate it because its staged then they should stop watching tv all together.

Anyway I can't wait.

These current Mustangs don't really do anything for me, would prefer the race to be done in the GT86

It's not the fact I don't like watching the show, it's the fact it's all faked but then acted in a way (badly) to make people believe it's actually happend that way. Why not just do it for real?!

So just as people wank about how amazin it is I'm entitled to my opinion so I'll watch it for the good bits as I always do. More cars less shit acting. Thank god for Sky+.

Tom that comment keeps coming up and is completely idiotic.

Clarkson, Hammond and May are not professional actors therefore it's not comparable to most shows on TV. They can have a laugh and a joke and wind each other up without fake acting and cringe worthy scenes. Dasia sandero gets hit by a lorry! Wow how shocked cam we act Bullshit.

at folk moaning. Before one of them a series or so back they said they purposely plan them so each "party" takes roughly the same amount of time.

Good thing the train ones aren't here otherwise Jeremy would win everytime

Exactly. That's what the Internet is for. Research on cars. Top gear is pure entertainment.
