The Top Gear Seven Revealed
Auto News
Top Gear has revealed it’s new look line up after the Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May era ended thanks to Clarkson’s right fist and an argument over a cold meat platter. It now takes six new presenters (not including Stig) to fill what are very big boots.  The line up consists of perhaps one familiar host, she is German and her name is Sabine Schmitz, viewers will remember her from one episode when she drove the Ford Transit around the Nurburgring where she is a resident driving instructor. Matt LeBlanc is well known, a surprise addition yes but who is Chris Evans? Chris Harris will be vaguely familiar to UK audiences, he has written for Autocar and a number of other high profile motoring magazines but has zero air-time TV exposure. Harris does have his own YouTube channel, but he only seems interested in getting sideways in every car he tests And he is an auto-bore, I mean full on bore. Eddie Jordan is a well known personality from the F1 industry, a former F1 team owner, Jordan also fronted the BBC’s F1 coverage until recently. Rory Reid is the complete outsider, although he is well regarded and known within the motoring/journalism community, Reid has also fronted CNET’s car show and also YouTube’s for Recombu a car and tech website. Reid also presents a tech show on Rupert Murdoch’s Sky TV. In many ways having multiple hosts on Top Gear is a return to how the old Top Gear format used to be. Let’s hope it doesn’t turn into Crap Gear, which is how the old Top Gear show ended up before Clarkson revamped the show in his vision.  TopGear-Six
