    Outside of "African Stig" and "American (fat!) Stig" I'm not so sure. You could be right, but I don't think so...

    A lot of sources (none of which I can remember ;)) said that a couple of guys are there for the job and if one has something else to do, another one is called. Thinking about it, I even think it was a FChatter who said so, knowing one of the Stigs personally...

    Not unless he publicly admits to the rumours..i would think.
    If he was "killed off" then it would only confirm what the press had been speculating.

    Besides, like the stig is acutaly a person...

    i would think for schedule they would need more than one driver.

    i also like the fact they came up with the "Stig" idea.

    i DONT WANT TO KNOW who it is ( they are?) , but i opened the tread anyway. :) ( shame on me)

    Top Gear is great entertainment, i really enjoy the show at face value, even though they seem to hate Americans.

    We don't hate Americans. We regard Americans fondly as our (slightly mentally challenged) cousins.

    I have also heard that several drivers have filled in for "Stig" over the years.

    Looks like the stig hacked into the system..definitly not a human..He seems to be speaking english, must be using a translator..lol
    I would agree however, that their must be more than one driver with all of their shows.

    Olivier Panis was the Stig when he drove the Toyota F1 car indoors...a few years ago. HK was the Stig when he was Renault's test driver. And one episode, it was snowmobile champion, can't remember his name, he was the Stig when the raced from the snowy mountain...
