Top Gear has simply become a showcase for Clarkson to do something stupid in a car - like race a tank, dodge snipers or try to drive over a thousand miles non-stop. He's become predictable, boring and tedious; it's time he was pensioned off.
Hammond and May, on the other hand, have the makings of a reasonable double act.
I can't understand why they didn't fly from Kristiansand to Oslo though. It must be written into JC's contract that he always has to win.
