Default Stig's Face in Zonda Mirror?

Anyone else catch this at about 5:40 of 12x04? Doesn't look anything like any of the presenters. Would anyone on the Top Gear crew besides the stig be able to powerslide like that?

How much time do you have to spend watching TG instead of doing some useful things, to notice something like that? I'm just curious images/smilies/smile.gif

It looks like Ben Collins. Then again, there's also a hint of the Pringles man and Rowan Atkinson in it. Thanks for the heads-up, and the rest of us will go back to not caring shortly.

What Is important about the Stig is that he be FAST, not who he is.

It looks nothing like Ben Collins. Far more like future Doctor Who candidate David Morrissey.

Exactly, Stig is Stig, just like Santa is Santa. There's no need to know who's behind the ho-ho-ho. images/smilies/santa.gif images/smilies/wink.gif

For the record, I just happened to catch it while watching and proceeded spend about 30 seconds in photoshop blowing it up.

I really don't care who the stig is, but I thought it was interesting to actually see a face after all this time. Figured people would be interested, but if you're not, nobody forced you to click images/smilies/smile.gif

We've just had way too many of these "Stig identity revealed! Details at ten!" posts from new people, so you can understand why some of the regulars get tired of these things. Based on that picture, though, here's another possibility:

Seems like Top Gear starts taking chances about Lord Stig's identity. First the carelessness on the official homepage and now an undisguised Ben Collins powersliding a zonda.
