Personally I think the 'let's find someone to blame' brigade should just leave it.

BBC must be a very,very happy bunch.....
Top Gear beats CBB in ratings It'd be now interesting to see how many viewers it attracted last series to yesterdays showing and what nexts weeks numbers are like. |

looks like Clarkson won his bet then, even if he did fib a bit in the article regarding the timing of the crash footage http://driving.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,12529-2567606,00 .html |

Think that was more that that programme on C4 that started at the same time that promotes racism. |

I can't see how you can blame Hammond. Surely before each run safety checks are done and I'm sure if he saw the tyre about to go, he'd have stopped according to the procedure he was briefed on?

I think the owner of the car may be facing criminal procedings as a result of the accident.

Think the owners saying, that if he had not jumped on the brakes he would not have had the massive spill that he did , it would have all be 'controlable'. The tyre puncture/delamination would have all been about reaction times. |

From the video footage it was 0.4 seconds from delamination to crash so reactions times are fairly irrelevant I would have thought.

That girl is a complete idiot. Hands up. I did watch a bit of CBB over the last few weeks. Enjoyed some of it too. Jades boyfriend asked BB what a foetus was! God help the children growing up with an idiot racist and a pig ignorant t**t for parents. Edited by ivanovoitch |

Can I just say, I am NOT defending Jade in any way but, does anyone realise her father is a half cast? I cannot see how she'd be purposefully racist if this is indeed the case? Just a thought! back on topic.......... |

No, was very faint and I tried to listen hard. But it must have been something along the lines of its nice to see that Hammonds alive and well and being able to talk through the incident ... i guess. |
