The Stig revealed

Well not exactly Civ news or anyways related to Civ or TBS or even gaming in general but newsworthy nevertheless. The identity of Top Gear's famous race car driver 'The Stig' (the white one that is) has finally been revealed. Click the link and see this revelation for yourself :)

What that clip fails to tell you is how they pretty much say it isn't at the end of the episode!

I don't buy it.

I don't buy it either. I think it's much safer to assume mr. Ben Collins sits in the Stig suit or there might even be multiple Stigs.

But I thought it was fun video nevertheless.

I don't believe it either. I don't know where, but I once read something about that the stiq wasn't a F1 driver because he's riding different lines and taking corners different than other F1 drivers.

Maybe he's a rally driver or something like that... ?

Funny you bring this up. Last week I saw a rerun of the show with Jenson Button ("will you ever win a formula 1 grand prix?"), and he commented on Stig's driving lines as well. I found the exact quote on wiki (why is there a wiki for about everything...).

Quote:
During the review of Jenson Button's lap, Clarkson commented that he, as did most of the other F1 drivers, took very different racing lines from the Stig's. Button commented that "...obviously, the Stig isn't a Formula One Driver, then", to which Clarkson replied, "might be."

Schumacher was the stig for that episode only. The ferrari they test is one he owns. But good on him for going along with the gag

Not really news anymore, but his real identity is out now and apparently this is causing some minor uproar in Britain.
