Michael Schumacher revealed as TV show Top Gear’s ‘Stig’

6 hours ago

LONDON (AFP) — Formula One legend Michael Schumacher was on Sunday unveiled as “the Stig”, the mystery man who test drives cars on British cult motoring show “Top Gear”.

The identity of the white-clad driver is kept a closely guarded secret, but Schumacher, who was Formula One world drivers’ champion seven times, finally revealed himself in the first of a new series of the show on Sunday night.

Presenter Jeremy Clarkson pretended not to recognise him at first, asking him what he used to do before he became famous as the Stig, but then excitedly shouted to the studio audience: “It’s Michael Schumacher!”

Former Formula One driver Perry McCarthy was Top Gear’s original Stig, who dressed all in black during the first two series.

The show is shown in more than 100 countries worldwide.

Who fucking cares who the driver is? As long as the laps are run consistent and fast, it doesn’t matter.

It is a great show though. I could do without all of the “drifting” but it’s still the best car show going.

Anyone who thinks that Shummi is the Stig is fucking stupid. It was a joke, and there are in fact several drivers who they use as the Stig character. I do give them props for being creative and “killing off” the ones that do get found out.

is someone that into a tv show that they will look at old videos and pictures to find a matching watch? that’s fucking lame.

And I bet someone could go and buy a watch that looks like Schumacher’s and put it on if they wanted to.

who cares who it is, it’s an entertaining show.
