      He's actually a massive dick head, my dad went to a top gear filming and him and Clarkson went off for a fag and ignored everyone the entire time. James May however was a class act, he chatted with the audience, kept people entertained. The only of the trio I really respect after that. Maybe he's changed now, who knows but always seems like he's putting on an act.

    Richard's quote gave me chills. He's so spot on:
    "You've got to love cars, it's not going away because it connects us at a human level, we love these things for a reason. It's more than avarice, it's more than materialism. These things move us physically, they love us emotionally, they take us beyond the confines of our cave which provides shelter. Everything else we need in life we need to get to, and a car is the machine we, as humankind, made to do that. If it conveys you to a mate, food, resources, everything you need, you've got to love it."
    - Richard Hammond

    I haven't watched a whole lot of The Grand Tour but OG Top Gear was essential viewing for over a decade. I don't think I missed an episode from about 2002. Hammond feels like a full blown rock star on this channel. I didn't expect to feel this way somehow.

    Bravo Alex, truly showing how skilled you are bud. Epic video.
    Richard shows despite all he has done, he still holds a true love for the cars.
    Phil shows how insane he is lol... fantastic video.

    Hammond's lil speech at the end almost brought a tear to the eyes. I whole heartedly agree. I'm part of a charity drive group that also echo allot of what was said in this video.😁

    If this was meant to be one of those DriveTribe rate CZcamsrs cars episodes (which I'm a big fan of by the way for reasons of inspiration) then having a little drive/interview thing whatever in a purpose built car with two passionate rev heads in it, is so much more entertaining than just sitting in an office and doing it that way. Quality Alex, simply Quality!

    This was sooo brilliant! Put a massive smile on my face! Videos like this make me love Richard even more as a person. He speaks to and for car enthusiasts in the exact way needed. I only wish this film had one more thing that I think was sorely missing - Hammond's Impreza STi. I would so love to see Phil and Martin in a proper, road trip-style video together. Alex, I hope you're reading this!

      @@SubtractZero contrary to many people’s belief, upgrading brakes in the way that you’re thinking (big brake kits) doesn’t actually make the car stop better. What makes a car stop better is the tyres. If you removed the ABS from any modern car, you would lock the wheels up easily. The limitation for braking is ALWAYS the tyres. All that upgrading brakes helps with is heat dissipation, so if the stock brake setup works, why change it? Upgraded pads and disks is probably enough for such a light car, besides it’s not like Alex is tracking it frequently

    Richard touches on something i have been thinking for a while. There is some great content creators on CZcams making some some really cool stuff, but much of it feels out of reach. I can't relate to a guy with a Lambo or high-end sports car. Alex and his team make things feel achievable, like i could go out and reacreate what happens in the videos. I feel part of the group.
    I had the pleasure of meeting Alex at the Classic Car Show albeit briefly and he is just as he is on screen. Bright, cheery and i didn't feel a burden taking his time. Great guy. Keep up the good work. 👍
