I think it brilliantly shows their bond as a team, as they've mentioned that the reason the rest of the team always left the one that broke down during their trips behind was because they believe so long as the others carry on, the team carries on, and in that way, everybody no matter what, gets to finish their adventure together.

Hammond remained in hospital for six days, before leaving on the 16th of June, 2017 on a jet bound for his home in the U.K. Hammond was able to drive again on the 12th of August, 2017, a little over two months after his accident. Organisers of the hill-climb event in Switzerland were fined five-thousand dollars and the event's director and three stewards were suspended for six months for being in violation of international FIA rules and regulations.

They should be awared of Hammond's behaivour since they were together for years yet they forget about the main rules of Hammond : never triggered his competitiveness by saying like that or similar things. Let him do what he wanted and he will do it by himself is Hammond most natural behaviour. I dont say blaming James and Jeremy directly, but sometimes you should watch what you said to them because we dont know what happened next COULD gone wrong/badly.
