His lap in the Suzuki Liana at the end would suggest otherwise! :D
Great to have Top Gear back. An oasis in a desert of politically correct telly!

My girlfriend actually asked me, 'Do you think that's why he stopped racing formula one?'
Massive face palm moment.

Repeated on Friday @ 9pm on BBC 2
So what was with the brutal lap at the end? was that just to take the piss yeh? Personally i always thought it was Damon Hill.
It can't be Schumacher - guest appearance as far as I'm concerend.
The Stig is Ben Collins

I reckon so as well.
The Stig has always been more than one person, Ben Collins being one of those, Damon Hill rumoured to be another. Perry McCarthy was the original "black Stig. "Michael Schumacher was brought over to drive the FXX to get the most out of the car as Ferrari didn't believe that the Stig would do the car justice. Schumacher is not allowed to drive any non Fiat group cars because of his contract with Ferrari, so there was no lap in the Liana.
Bit weird that the stig was given seperate (presenter) credit at the end, while Shumacher got a guest listing!
