Because "outs" would be taken the wrong way (nothing else about his
personal life is given here)... Ben Collins wants to sell his book,
much as his predecessor did with the same result...

Here is producer Andy Wilman's take on the situation -- not only does
he consider it rude for the Stig to reveal himself (which could be
taken as wrongly as "outs" if not moreso), he considers it a breach of
contract.

I've just watched Ben Collins' debut on "Fifth Gear." Something about
the high tinge of his voice makes me long for the days when he wore a
white suit and shut the hell up.

Autoblog has a picture (presumably taken from TopGear's website)
showing the boys at the "Stig Farm", looking for a replacement Stig.
I imagine this segment will show up in the first episode of the next
series.

Some say he can be turned into an effective biofuel...

I'm just reminded of part of the 60 Minutes coverage where an executive producer noted you can't find a racing driver that can speak intelligently, regardless of country.
