Top e Fifth Gear

Vi este comment.
Não sei se disseram isto no episódio de hoje.

News from Top Gear: The P1 vs. 918 vs. LaFerrari test will take place after all.
Ferrari still won't let them use customer cars, but McLaren has now agreed to a test with factory cars. Porsche currently doesn't have a factory car available, so the test will take place as soon as they do (which shouldn't take too long). They haven't decided on a track, but the manufacturers agree that it should be on 'neutral ground'. That would disqualify their individual test tracks, I reckon.
 
Finalmente!!!! Vamos ter o trio numa pista! O Top Gear conseguiu.


Quanto ao resto do episódio: adorei aquele e-type remodelado, mete o f-type num bolsinho pequenino a nível de classe e beleza. Nem é comparável sequer.

É uma pena que só existam pequenas empresas a remodelar carros clássicos belíssimos (Singer, Eagle, etc); E depois claro, custam pequenas fortunas :(

Gostava que fossem as próprias marcas a fazer isto... Ferrari, Porsche, Jaguar... PLEASE.

Não deve ter rentabilidade suficiente para eles sequer considerarem isso. Além disso as grandes marcas têm restrições ambientais (entre outras) que uma marca de pequena dimensão não tem.

É também por isso que uma Koenigsegg tem carros tão potentes, que só andam o que é suposto com etanol etc. etc.

São mundos diferentes.
 
Bom episódio. Aquele rallycross é uma loucura.

De resto: F-Type e Eagle [br:)], MX-5 ainda não consigo gostar. Talvez com o tempo.
 
The BBC has suspended Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson “following a fracas” with a producer.

He was put on what was called his final warning last year following a racism row after claims that he used the N-word while reciting the nursery rhyme Eeny, Meeny, Miny Moe during filming of the BBC2 programme.

Jeremy Clarkson's past Top Gear controversies

A BBC spokeswoman said: “Following a fracas with a BBC producer, Jeremy Clarkson has been suspended pending an investigation.

“No one else has been suspended. Top Gear will not be broadcast this Sunday. The BBC will be making no further comment at this time.”

In recent years Clarkson has been cleared of breaching the broadcasting code by watchdog Ofcom after comparing a Japanese car to people with growths on their faces.

He previously faced a storm of protest from mental health charities after he branded people who throw themselves under trains as “selfish” and was forced to apologise for telling BBC1’s The One Show that striking workers should be shot.


Jeremy Clarkson's company makes £600,000 profit

Earlier this year, BBC director general Tony Hall defended the show.

The hit series has been dogged by rows over racism and sparked a near-riot while filming in Argentina, but he defended the motoring show as offering “a different voice” to viewers.

Last year, the show was censored by Ofcom for breaching broadcasting rules after Clarkson used a “racial” term during the programme’s Burma special, which had aired in March last year.

The year ended with the motoring show’s crew forced to flee Argentina after trouble erupted when it emerged they were using a Porsche with the registration number H982 FKL, which some people suggested could refer to the Falklands conflict of 1982.

But each episode in the two-part Christmas special attracted more than seven million viewers last year, with a further three million for each episode on iPlayer.

This Sunday’s episode was set to feature the trio – Clarkson with Richard Hammond and James May – getting to grips with classic cars such as a Fiat 124 Spider, an MGB GT and a Peugeot 304 Cabriolet.

They were set to take to the road and end up at a classic track day, while Gary Lineker was the “star in a reasonably priced car”.

Top Gear’s executive producer Andy Wilman described last year as “an annus horribilis” for the show after the claims of racism and the near-riot in Argentina
