The drama has been unfolding involving Top Gear's infamous The Stig. Now that it's been revealed it was famed racecar driver Ben Collins, BBC (producers of Top Gear) has been chasing after Collins and his publishing company, HarperCollins to do their best in halting the actual publishing of Ben's autobiography. Now it looks like the court has ruled in HarperCollins' favor, stating that BBC cannot stop the publishing of the book.
We personally don't see what the big deal is now that the identity of The Stig has been ousted. Top Gear already has a new man in mystery behind the wheel, and we strongly doubt much of their viewership has dropped off. If anything, this press has probably turned some new viewers to Top Gear to see what all the hype is about behind The Stig.
