Legit?

I’m happy that Rory is a part of it. He did a review completely in poetry.

Who is the black guy? Don’t think I’ve ever seen him before...

Rory Reid. He runs Recombu Cars’ on YouTube and used to be on Fast Furious and Funny

Fuck yeah!

Also, now I want Chris Evans green leather jacket. And one of his babied Ferraris. (Just one, so I’m not being greedy)

I just want content. And stupid challenges and explosions and adventures.

Wow, that’s all of them? Neat!

Let’s test them out for a season before final judgement. In any case, it’s cool to get this roster.

I also have this gut feeling that Susie Wolff is the Stig.

Blue denim dungarees aplenty. Odd that millionaires affect a faux-grunge look. Evans in predistressed leather jacket over hooded sweatshirt and predistressed dungarees is trying to ‘butch up’ ...

They don’t need a Stig, because Schmitz is a racer, and Harris can drive fast while speaking intelligently about a vehicle.

Don’t need elderly Jordan, who shouldn’t need or desire that job.

Don’t need the vomiting radio show host who already had two jobs.

I don’t perceive a need for Evans to be a foreman while others are subordinate. Harris, Leblanc, Reid, and Schmitz could cohost as equals.

I'm happy with this, looking forward to seeing what they can do with the show. It won't be the same but hopefully it will be fresh ideas and good fun.

Top Gear Mark III. These are them.

Can’t edit my comment but I just want to say thank you. I couldn’t find anything on it but I just saw thanks to you guys.

Hoho, people on the DailyMail are NOT happy.

This is interesting. I’d definitely give it a watch.

Actually, discovered something interesting talking to my GF. She’d never really watched Top Gear before me, and has only really got on with the specials after.

However, she said that she’d watch this show just because Joey from Friends was on it and she was curious.

Interesting...

he was the only one who made it through the auditions they held

The Bridge to Gantry guy would have been the best I think... Oh well...

boxrocket > probablyshoulduseafakename

Seems like a very diverse, relatively-politically-correct cast with some genuine enthusiasts/ experts and skilled drivers I appreciate it’s not an all-UK cast as well.

When does it air?

I hope Harris dies more than drifts. I greatly enjoyed his video on that black McLaren P1 when it first came out, but the drift lap literally put me to sleep.

Also, wow, he is short!

Tareim - V8 powered > Flavien Vidal
02/11/2016 at 06:54

yeah I think Dale would’ve been a good choice rather than some relatively unknown person

Flavien Vidal > Tareim - V8 powered
02/11/2016 at 07:01

Well, Dale is just as unknown as Chris Harris really... Actually he is probably 100 times “more unknown” than Chris Harris lol. Compared to Top Gear and the audience it aims at, Matt Farah, David Freiburger, Mike Finnegan or Chris Harris are totally unknown people. Don’t forget we come from a insanely small niche when looking at the audience that Top Gear reaches to.

that is true I guess, just have to wait and see how it all fits together

Make sure they clean the vomit off really well first.

They’re never happy about anything.

McMike > probablyshoulduseafakename

Looks like Harris and Jordan didn’t get the same “tip-toes on three” memo that Schmitz did.

Sam > probablyshoulduseafakename
02/11/2016 at 07:40

Like I said when they announced Matt, they’re countering quality with quantity. (Not that these folks aren't good, they're just not the dynamic trio when it comes to TG)

probablyshoulduseafakename > boxrocket
02/11/2016 at 08:10

I think he’s the same height as Hammond. No idea when it airs, probably they still have to film the whole thing

Tapas > SidewaysOnDirt still misses Bowie
02/11/2016 at 08:42

I can do the cleaning. I don’t mind.

If I’m getting a fucking Ferrari, I’ll lick it clean lol

Tapas > probablyshoulduseafakename
02/11/2016 at 08:45

Muah hahaha! JESSS, MOAR STUPID CAR TOMFOOLERY!

Maybe throw in some dragoning? When you’re competing with the original top gear guys, you don’t wanna leave any demographics behind, no matter how niche lol

I hate ‘shopped photos like these. If you’re going to use Photoshop for a group of people who clearly weren’t all in the same room together, just make it clearly ‘shopped. The result would be far better than the above.
