James May and Richard Hammond are out of contract with the BBC, after declining to sign new deals to present the next series of Top Gear. Some other studio may do very well from the trio: Richard-Hammond-and-James-May-join-Jeremy-Clarkson-in-leaving-Top-Gear (www.stuff.co.nz) Mind you, there will be years of reruns. |

| 1397857 | 2015-04-03 03:12:00 | Both James May & Richard Hammond have shows of their own. Jeremy is a prolific author of books and magazine articles. They will probably take a break for a while, and maybe do something together later when Jeremy has sorted his demons. They all have plenty of money so the don't need Top Gear. | mzee (3324) | ||
| 1397858 | 2015-04-03 04:42:00 | They all have plenty of money so the don't need Top Gear. So true, Its Top Gear that needs them. The other versions are a weak attempt to copy and no where as entertaining. Theres just "something" about the combo of Richard, James and Jeremy. Some things just "Stick" A couple that come to mind -- Richard Hammond -- "I'm a Driving God" And James May -- Captain Slow |

They aren't the only 3 funny guys on the planet that could work well together and if anyone can find worthy replacements it's the British. Aussies & Americans are hardly ever as funny as the British on TV so they have a head start already. I never watch car shows but then top gear came along and changed that. I'm kinda hoping it won't die. | dugimodo (138) | ||

Still, bring him back, on the proviso that any time he upsets anyone they get to verbally abuse him, threaten his livelihood and punch him in the face. Pretty sure if the shoe was on the other foot he wouldn't be quite the tosspot ****** he is today. |

That was my closest race track to where I grew up it's near Dover, my best mate raced mini's there in the 90's and I raced cycles there on Tuesday evenings in the 90's. | gary67 (56) | ||
