The mystery seed of who the Stig really is has germinated,flourished and captured everyones imagination. I mean even if Jeremy Clarkson himself come
out and said it is such and such,I will still have doubts in my mind and i won't be alone!

The weather conditions probably make more difference in the times to be honest (semi admitted via the 'wet lap = 4secs' thing). I expect
most pro drivers would be very close in times set in any car over a circuit they've been driving a lot.

Page 6 - part 36 / 37 mentions Ben Collins - the second worst kept secret in Top Gear history!! I thought it was common knowledge he was the
"primary" white stig!!!

Something interesting which may have had some bearing on the Ascari drive:
