no, if he ever does find out he will lack purpose. His life will be empty and unfulfilled.

DP and I were discussing this last night.

Got to be an ex racing driver. You are probably right about Mark Webber.

I didn't realise the last one was Damon hill though.....alothough againi assumed it was a racing driver

We think, chez llareggub, the Stig is one of many different drivers.

I think wikipedia (ahem.. clearly the font of all knowledge) said the Stig is one of 3 people depending on the show

There have been lots of comments on it being more than one driver because he seems to be different shapes and sizes in each episode. Would love to know though

No, Fabio, it's me.

hughjarssss · 29/07/2008 23:14

JC said on sunday's show that this was a new younger stig who was replacing the last one, so I don't think it is 3 different ones

Apparently the Stig is indeed many different drivers. For example, when one of the car companies gives their new super flash car to the programme to take round the track the company will send their own test driver to complete the lap and pose as the Stig as they won't let others loose on the car. At other times its been varying people, including on a few occasions a certain Mr Hamilton.
