''Clarkson while beeing a twit..............'' We agree ! I am happy to rest my case on that point.
Nuf said here !
On a serious point though, it seems Richard stood-in for May** ! How well was he prepared for the unique challenge of driving a vehicle like that ?
Why did the run go ahead in strong winds - particularly dangerous for high speed vehicles with light front-end loads ?
Sorry but the producers/directors of this show have a lot of questions to answer. They have fed the cult of the immature boyracer so let them reap a whirlwind of criticism if they have psyched the presenter/s to take on one challenge too many, underprepared and in unsuitable conditions.
