That's pretty funny  [laugh]

Though, I still contend that "The Stig" is played by 2-3 different people with Ben Collins being a likely candidate for one of them.

+1 You'd have to pay him a significant amount for him to make the effort to drive every car he is asked to.

Some of those cars are pretty damned expensive, what't a little more money for an expert?

I know how to tell if Schumacher is really "The Stig". Have Damon Hill, Mika Häkkinen, or Jacques Villeneuve take the Liana around the course and see if "The Stig" tries to punt them off  [laugh]

If that's not enough proof, the one time they get Schumi to drive he takes the helmet off?  Definitely not a coincidence.

Supposedly Ferrari will only let a car owner (or owner's driver I presume) drive their FXX since they are kept in the possession of the factory.  AKA owners don't take them home and they don't get loaned out for tests- makes sense Schumi would be driving his own.
