...Well, good riddance. At the time I thought it might be not as bad as the whole concept sounded, but after some moments of retrospection, it was a ruddy awful idea and a poorly executed one at that.
 
I mean,
Atleast the 156 will have a somewhat-important role in the show. :lol:
 
This is one of the funniest things they've done in a while, on the account of how random the ending is. :lol:

oh god I was laughing like a idiot in my office. Great stuff :D
 
My family recently got a 4K HDR TV and I rewatched a couple episodes and wow! The show looks amazing. The colors are beautiful.
 
Anyone else quite excited for tomorrow?

I heard the first Episode will be the Rimac comparison test.....which includes Hammonds crash!
 
Does anyone know what time season 2 starts is it midnight tonight or tomorrow?
 
Looks like the episode is currently available.
 
Overall I think it was a pretty good episode. But I do wish they would talk more about cars during the conversation street.
 
So without any real spoilers have they ditched the brain crash rubbish?
 
It was an alright episode. Couple of laughs but nothing too memorable. Definitely interested in the new Celebrity Face-Off though.
 
I don't know why they have gone down the same route as TG with a hard to master RWD car for the celebs to drive. With a FWD car the skill gap is reduced somewhat because the car is easy to drive fast, with a powerful RWD car you will get someone who's fairly handy behind the wheel and will go 10 seconds faster than everyone else.
It doesn't make for much of a spectacle.
 
I actually thought it was much better than last season. The new celebrity face off feels like old Top Gear.
So much better.
 
May is starting to looks like Jeremy.
 
Good enjoyable episode and a good start to the series. 👍

I feel like it may be the AWD model? Either that or they were both able to not oversteer too much after practice.
 
Good fun, although the Hoff looks like a crinkled David Coulthard.

Can't wait for the Jag special either.

Is it me or is James May turning into Clarkson.

Anyway, my favourite bit was watching the Aventador accelerating hard in a tunnel through third and fourth gears, but the speedo only going from 78km/h to 80km/h.
 
I cant believe the crash part along with the emergency responses kept in. Bit tilted after that, but glad Hammond is okay in the end.
 
Never realised how slow the four pot F-Types would look, although it sounds as bad as I imagined it would.
 
I thought it was an ok episode. Far from great, but good enough for me to watch future episodes.
 
The reason Hamond kept going to the same museum made me laugh. Classic stuff from those 3.

Best part for me was Clarkson and May arguing whether the NSX's fuel needle was straight or not, I was like 'yep and they are back!' :lol:
 
It was an alright start to the season. I watched season 24 of Top Gear before this, and it strikes a better balance for me.
