I think Ben Collins and Perry McCarthy have been the STIG....and as Robin says there have been a few other drivers that have stood in too.
Funny that Tiff stood in for Hammond at last years MPH shows

I think that it's not one person. The driving style seams to change each week.

Jimmy Carr will tell you at one of his live shows who it is if you ask.
It is two ex rally drivers whos names he can't remember, and he had Damon Hill as Stig when he was on there

Apart from when he knocked Mansell out in the TOCA Touring car shootout at Donington in the 90's causing Mansell to be knocked unconcious - it was Tiffs fault - I watched it unfold, it was bad driving.
Other than that, he's alright. But its not the Stig.
I was stood where he hit the barrier, shat myself
I just remember seeing Mansells head lolling out the window, what a bad place he hit though right on the kicker of the bridge. I was scared for him, in those days Mansell was still my hero. I've still got the ticket somewhere

Sounds a bit gay, like that Jason Battyman pillock.
Very dissappointing.

wasnt there a post on this before where it was said. it was some 'amateur' rally driver?
theres a lot of reference to f1 with the stig, like when he was on the train in london and he picked up a paper with the headline about f1
makes you wonder, could be a ploy?

We're all assuming it's someone well known. It could be ANYONE really.
