So looks like the BBC has finally confirmed who will be hosting the new Top Gear series earlier today.

Joining main host Chris Evans (the BBC radio show personality), The Stig and former Friends' star Matt LeBlanc are Eddie Jordan, Chris Harris, Sabine Schmitz and Rory Reid.

QUOTE

Eddie Jordan, who was also rumored to be making an appearance. He joins from the BBC’s Formula 1 team.

Chris Harris, who hosts a popular YouTube motoring programme, and was photographed in a pub with Evans recently, somewhat giving the game away.

Sabine Schmitz, a kick-ass German racing driver who can drive a van around the Nurburgring very, very fast.

Rory Reid from Recombu Cars.

IMO, its not Top Gear. The original hosts were Top Gear and now they have left. I'd like to see how much its gonna be different though.

It's sad that they need to bring a shit load of presenters to (and you know it's true) fill in what 3 + the stig did for so many years.

Cool, we get a few more racers and chris (Who from a previous post on social media, was throwing up on the side of a race track due to the girls driving I think)

I really wanna see how The trios show comes out, it's been real quiet over there for them, must be plotting a rape on top gear.

Can't hate it until we see it. I think LeBlanc could keep it steady, considering he was one of the better guests.

Car shows serve but one purpose... to entertain to get people to buy a fscking car.

That being said, this is what a certain car company that makes amazing motorcycles should do before thinking of sending their next prototype to Top Gear/Clarkson/Amazon/Leno/YouTube/etcetera, etcetera:

1. Replicate this...... and do not, I repeat DO NOT for the love of JESUS TITTY FUCKING CHRIST HONDA change a single thing about this car:

I am sure Matt LeBlanc will attract many fans of the show "Friends" that were not interested in cars at all.

After one season, Chris Evans quits from the show.

LeBlanc MIGHT return for the next season but as he says 'it's up to BBC'

Though James Martin is looking like he'll land the presenter job for next season.

Chris Evans sucked. Plain and simple.

Matt was cool but you could tell he was not happy.

Sucked big time.

Even though the previous guests had planned stuff, the first episode of the new season just didn't fit well with me (When they got the 3 wheel cars, you can tell the breaking down was just so boringly planned out to make it 'interesting)

Now it's time to see how the Trio handles their new program. biggrin.gif

There was that rumor that 50cent wanted to replace Chris Evans or something.
I would've liked to see that.

*cue theme*
YOUTUBE ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwX-KS1816c )

"dis nite, we got my boy LABLANK stuntin' in dis new Ventley, the home gurl Sab-Bin stuntin' in dis new Ventley, and yo boy Fiddy stuntin' in dis new Ventley, Les go! S'bout to p..p..POP OFF!"


Seriously, I would've really wanted to see that, the guy has a sense of humor.

But he's not really a car guy.

Unless he went bankrupt on cars.

I haven't seen much of the first season of the new Top Gear, but for the most part, Chris Evans wasn't really a good fit for this ensemble cast. I just wish they had put Chris Harris and the other guy who did the after show more often on the main show.

Chris Evans did not fit with the cast. I thought the Top Gear journalist group were decent and could actually be the 3 co hosts to lead the show.

Call up Rowan Atkinson. He likes automobiles and Mr.Bean would be good as explaining car stuff like The Stig.

Mr bean would be good, just depends on how he'll do and if he'll consider it. There's not that many car people who aren't busy as fuck sad.gif.

T-T-T-Toy...!!?

That, my good sir, is a cheap-man's Dragunov SVD. It may not have all the bells & whistles of a 007 Pagani Zonda, a Black UFO Grendizer 911-Turbo, or a Super Mario 488 GTB ... but holy-mother-o'focké that little assassin's pistol can & will slice your head on a residential before you can say Porsche Oil Changeー
