what happened to Ben Collins?

[Mr_Smith]

I think I have seen every show since Ben Collins outed himself on Fifth Gear as The Stig, but haven't seen him since?

what happened there?

Can't have had much of a job if he only appeared the once.

To me it just seemed like a pretty petty and lame attempt at One-upmanship by Fifth Gear

Two words: racing career.

I just assumed he got canned or decided to leave of his own volition because he isn't exactly a natural speaking to camera. No disrespect to his driving ability but he was somewhat wooden on screen.

Good ridance.

That's precisely why he had to wear the Stig suit and wasn't allowed to talk

Poor old Benny Collins. I wonder if he ever regrets outing himself as The Stig.

That wasn't real sympathy by the way.

Who is this "Ben Collins" you speak of...

Some guy who used to drive for Ascari and RML at Le Mans I think.
