It could be Schumi, it has been said that it's a few different Stigs. He could be one of them.

The only reason they managed to get the Ferrari Fxx thing there was down to Schumacher driving it....... i doubt ferrari would let just anyone drive one....... i did think he was a bit of a brick letting Jezzer take the pi55 out of him a bit..... and did you notice, anything a little risky... he simply laughed at.....

Good show though.....

I also noticed the "being able to go over a speed bump" went out of the window with the FXX I don't think it could have driven over a mouse without ripping of the font end.

I thought the interview was great. Michael seemed to take the JC jokes very well and responded with great humour. Personally didn't see anything wrong with it.

What about the James May programme afterwards too? Also very entertaining  :D

Exactly - he's not the normal Stig. He doesn't have time and the BBC couldn't afford him! Take a look at the Wikipedia article to find the real Stig's secret identity.

If you can find the Top Gear episode where Stig took public transport around London, look how he walks, then compare it to how Schumacher walked on the show, completely different.

Schumacher was there babysitting the Ferrari.

I liked how black Clarkson got after his trip on the train and how he left a dirty streak down the wall at the pub/hotel as he slid to the floor when he met May  :lol:

As much as I liked the show, I much prefered the James May programme afterwards though.

indeed, it was Spoonfaces very own car hence why he drove it as the stig. The real stig is still that James Bond stunt driver...forget his name!!
