I couldn't believe that when I saw that on the Top Gear site. Hope he's okay and that he can race at the weekend, not that I want him to win but still bad luck for the guy.

Get well Plato

I guess he is alright, lucky that nothing serious happened. He's one of my favourite presenters, he knows the trade of judging a car.
Get well soon, Jason !!!

Good luck on BTCC, eventhough he drives a Seat, I'd love to see him in a BMW images/smilies/wink.gif

I'm not the biggest fan of FG but Plato is a legend in himself. Hope he gets well soon.

Also, does this count as a 'decent' injury according to TG's new rules?
