Anyone who took it on was on a hiding to nothing really but it's already looking farcical and they haven't even broadcast an episode yet.

It doesn't sound nearly fascist enough to me ... All these presenters sound like genuinely decent people! Can't see this going down well with the 'Top Gear Fans' (which seems to be a catch all phrase for 'simpletons'). Personally I'm looking forward to having a car show to watch again .... Plus I'm saving money by cancelling Amazon prime.

I reckon with this much hype the first episode is going to be Facebook anti-climax of the year.

I don't know if it's just me, but I'm really not that excited about the prospect of anyone other than Chris Evans.

That 918/LaFerrari/P1 review he did with Tiff Needell & Marino Franchitti was excellent.

Im guessing not all of them will be on each episode, will be a bit messy if they are.

TG used to be like this pre 2002 refresh. Lots of presenters.
