James drives so much better when he borrows The Stig's helmet. That's the secret. It's the helmet. Some say it's magnetic.

I think nowadays it's multiple people who play the Stig, probably a different guy who specialises in a certain type of driving. The BBC don't ever want what happened with Ben Collins to happen again, where one guy played the Stig in almost all his appearances and was able to write a memoir exposing secrets. With numerous actors/drivers, there can't be any one person who can outright claim that they're the Stig in future.

@__-po7bm 6 жыл бұрын

Yep. Because the cars used in the video are Proton S2000 cars, the fact that he's a really good rally driver (although he would never beat his brother), being British and his scheduling being round about right for the time of filming, I suspect "The Stig" in this case is Alister McRae, the son of Jimmy McRae and brother of Colin.
