Joey... okay, Matt LeBlanc will be seen riding a Ducati 1299 Superleggera on Top Gear Series 24. Now motorcycles are a rare sight on the British motoring television series and the Superleggera is indeed a special Ducati. Speaking to the folks at CarScoops ahead of the latest series, LeBlanc said that the 24th season will feature, "the Bugatti Chiron, even a Ducatti 1299 Superleggera, a spectacular bike I rode to LeMans." Other exotics that'd be seen on the show along with Bugatti Chiron Read More...

The former Top Gear trio could face three years in prison as a judge reopened the investigation into their controversial number plate stunt in Argentina last year. Jeremy Clarkson sparked a controversy last year after driving through Argentina on a 1,400-mile road trip for a Top Gear Christmas special in a Porsche with the number plate "H982 FKL" on it. Argentina’s ambassador Alicia Castro called the H982 FKL plate ‘malicious mockery’ of those who fought in the 1982 Falklands War, uplifting Read More...

The former Top Gear trio of Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May have finally confirmed that they will be creating a new car show for e-retail giant Amazon. The new show will air sometime early next year and be produced by former Top Gear executive Andy Wilman, an old school friend of Clarkson’s who is credited with revamping the format and turning it into the world’s most successful factual TV show. The trio have signed a three-series deal with Read More...

The mystery over “Who will replace Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear?” has finally come to a close. The BBC announced that Chris Evans – a television and radio personality, has been appointed as the new host/presenter of the show and has signed a three year contract. In retrospect, Evans had clearly denied any participation in the show, saying that Clarkson can “never” be replaced. Top Gear is arguably the world’s leading car show and attracts over 350 million viewers globally. Read More...

After all the Jeremy Clarkson debacle, everyone who loved watching Top Gear are now eager to get any sniff of the trio's return. The three "musketeers" haven't yet mentioned much about their return on television. However, in one of their live tours in Belfast, the 'hamster' uttered something. That pretty much attracted the attention of everyone present at the live event. Also, made us quite curious about what Hammond meant.   The trio have always stuck together. Looks like the Read More...

Richard Hammond has been disappointingly quiet following his colleague Jeremy Clarkson’s dismissal from Top Gear by the BBC. Unlike James May who told reporters outside his house that he won’t be going back without Clarkson almost immediately after the verdict was announced, Hammond has chosen to keep quiet. Of course, he has followed May with his own “unemployment channel” on YouTube, but not a peep about Top Gear itself, until now. Taking to Twitter yesterday, Hammond announced that he would Read More...

Now that he is ousted from Top Gear, the world will largely remember Jeremy Clarkson for his outrageous statements and childish antics on and off camera. For the true petrolhead though, Clarkson will be remembered for his funny, insightful and quirky way of explaining often complicated concepts to the layman. We aren’t writing him off yet, and outside of the Beeb, Clarson still has a lot to deliver to the car-loving world. But this got us thinking, what is the Read More...

Uh oh, this seems to be a bad time not just for Jeremy Clarkson, but his fellow co-presenters too. It seems like James May and Richard Hammond are evaluating their life plans in the wake of Clarkson’s dismissal from the money-spinning Top Gear franchise. British newspapers are reporting that the two are jointly auctioning off some of their prized motorcycles. You might remember that, unlike Clarkson who won’t be seen dead near any two-wheeler if he can help it, May Read More...
