Thanks for the reminder. It should be good. Hill has failed. Button has failed. How will Hamilton do? I think he'll fair better than the other two, however, the Stig has been driving around that track in that car for years. Hamilton beating him is by no means certain in my view.

Top Gear New's November 29, 2007

Lewis vs the Stig
Britain's F1 golden boy will make his first ever Top Gear appearance this Sunday at 8pm on BBC Two.

The show that Lewis describes as, 'one of my favourites,' sees him fighting his corner in the kind of no-holds-barred grilling that only Clarkson can dish out.

As you'd expect, Jeremy pushes him on all things that matter, with even Hamilton Senior finding himself on the wrong side of a ribbing.

Lewis then takes on an even more important challenge than clearing up at this weekend's Autosport awards: stepping out on the TG test track against the Stig...

Hamilton gets behind the wheel of the Suzuki Liana - the same car that the other F1 stars Mansell, Button, Hill and Webber have previously found themselves in - to find out if he can beat our Stig's blisteringly quick time of 1.44.4.

The only difference being that Lewis has to deal with not only water but also oil leaked from Jeremy's VXR8 on track earlier in the day.

Will Lewis Hamilton find his pole position winning form when it really counts? You'll have to tune in this Sunday December 2 at 8pm on BBC Two to find out.

But whatever happens, it's sure to be the TV highlight of the year.

Don't miss it.

So this should be around 2pm central US time I believe, I cant wait to watch it. I was watching Top Gear about a week ago and Stig was driving a Ferrari F50 and he mentioned he had driven formula car's, what' his racing background?

I've been looking forward to seeing Hamilton on Top Gear, should be a good one.

Not surprising that Clarkson managed to make a VXR8 leak oil the way he thrashes it on the track and yells "POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!".

Clarkson is EASY on the car's compared to the torture they would endure from me !

The stories are best left for my passenger's nightmare's that have rode with me but of course all of that was done many many year's ago. I actually believe my comment was abit deceptive because you do not have to abuse the car and engine to set fast lap like Clarkson tend's to do. I eventually recieved my diploma in SMOOOOTH car control !

Whats wrong with car abuse?

That's a 'can of worm's' that will lead this thread even more OT !

The Stig FTW! Who is he anyways?

Some say...

This topic is being debated/discussed on another forum and it seem's that 'The Stig' has not been just one driver but a multitude of past and present famous driver's.
