Top Gear: Stig Identity Known?
Top Gear fans can hardly consider the show without Stig. His driving skills are enough to make every viewer need to take a deep breath, but one thing that makes his driving even more intriguing is the fact that his helmet hides his face. Of course, it’s not hard to assume that Stig must be some professional from the world of motoring.
Indeed, Autoblog reports that one British celebrity is now claiming he knows who Stig is.
Guests on the show’s “a star in a reasonably-priced car” segment work with The Stig to perfect their hot lap on Top Gear’s test track, but none have ever revealed his identity. Comedian Omid Djalili, however, is insistent that The Stig is actually McLaren’s star pilot Lewis Hamilton. Djalili’s revelation is based on speculation garnered from speaking with The Stig, who purportedly revealed his age to the comedian.
Personally, I don’t think it matters who Stig is and Top Gear should keep his identity hidden. It’s part of the reason why we actually want to see more.
