BBC have admitted that he isn't the real Stig. Ferrari gave them a car but only let him drive it, so they just put him in the Stig's suit.


The BBC and Top Gear has varied their responses to the Stig's true identity. One official BBC response to such speculation is "We never comment on speculation as to who or what the Stig is."[34] (en.wikipedia.org) However, comical and joke responses to Stig's true identity are sometimes presented as well.[52] (en.wikipedia.org)[53] (en.wikipedia.org)[54] (en.wikipedia.org)[55] (en.wikipedia.org) In one example, after The Stig drove an all-black Ferrari FXX (en.wikipedia.org)[56] (en.wikipedia.org) around the Top Gear Test Track, he was brought into the studio, and "revealed" as Michael Schumacher.[57] (en.wikipedia.org) Clarkson then stated at the end of the show "I'm not sure if Michael Schumacher is the Stig" after showing a comedy clip of Schumacher (dressed up as the Stig) supposedly struggling to drive the Suzuki Liana.[58] (en.wikipedia.org)
