I hope the producer responsible for this was reprimanded.

Jay was meeting with C.J. Wilson and discussing C.J.’s McLaren P1. In a voice over, Jay said something like “The P1 was inspired by its successor, the McLaren F1.”

And yet what shows up on the screen? A Ford GT40. The Harrod’s F1 GT-R appeared on the screen next but WTF?

It’s a car show. With a real car guy as the host. How do you fuck that up?

Did he say successor? Or Predecessor?

I saw that. The show has a surprising amount of factual errors in pricing and numbers and such. I like Leno, but as a car guy there are some annoying aspects of this show.

I got a bad taste in my mouth when I saw this happen live. It's amazing the mistakes that make it through post-production on car shows.

Okay, now you’re nitpicking.

Perhaps it was the P1 is the successor of the F1.

This is happens when the network gets a hold of your idea. Unlike his web series, I bet parts this show are out of his hands.

At least I hope so. I rewound that shit too. Hopefully everyone took to social media and he’ll have someone paying more attention from now on.

That is, if it lasts.

The show is better than most car shows, but it’s not like the bar is very high.

His YT series was always so informative. In this he just comes across as a host of a car show.

Car shows are hard.
