    I still prefer the old Monaro, why did they replace a coupe with a saloon when they already do a vectra vxr which is a saloon.

    I thought Blunt came across pretty cool- I like the way he took the piss out of his own music :D. Hamilton was pretty impressive but I didn't think he came across all that modest- bit cocky for my liking, although undoubtedly talented. The BMW at the end though was shockingly good- although I've never been a massive fan of the cars they make, the R&D that BMW do is very prominent and impressive.

    The response to Hamilton seemed a bit fake to me, mighty impressive lap though

    Meant to add I LOVE the BMW, perhaps F1 will end up with robot cars?!

    Great show though, the race was brilliant. As with all of these specials, its a shame we can't see a longer, more detailed version.

    The Stig is brilliant, he showed some class. I'm very surprised that they finished the race though.

    It makes you want to have a go though. As with the reasonably priced car, you can't help but sit there and think "i wonder how fast i could get round"

    After watching four seasons of Top Gear in a month I'm starting to sound like Clarkson when I get excited so I guess that's me sorted :D

    Who's gonna be the Stig?

    That Merc looks amazing tbh, would never buy a BMW, agree with Clarkson 100%, they have a ****** look about them. :)
