Well, anyone watching Top Gear on BBC 2 this evening will have been surprised to see The Stig did actually remove his helmet and reveal his real identity. Perhaps. If it was for real.
No it wasn’t a plumber from Brighton, and yes it was an F1 driver – but not too many pundits suggested it was Michael Schumacher.
Even if Schumacher is the real Stig, does this herald this Stig’s retirement and a new mystery Stig we wonder? Or are there another three Stigs who we don’t yet know the identity of?
Whatever the truth behind The Mystery of The Stig its certainly been an interesting few days for motorsport fans!
