This is a argument that has been raging since engine's had a wheel strapped on each corner. But of all the drivers I've seen or heard of there is just one who inspired me. Ayrton Senna. I know there will be so many for or against, but I want to say that Ayrton inspired me. Same as Nigel or Lewis or Alain or Keke or Jimmy or Niki or James. Or a driver that drove beyond what was normal on a forgotten track on a sunny day on a long forgotten weekend. IT DOESN'T MATTER. That person inspired you. Each and every driver risks life and limb every time they step into a cockpit and the engine growls in anger. They are all heroes in their way. It's just a handful of drivers rise to the top consistently. Schumacher, Hamilton, Senna, Prost etc. I am not a fan of Senna for obvious reasons, and that's my opinion. It counts for nothing. Hill, Villeneuve and Schumacher knows what happened.

No engine sound, no feedback from the steering, brakes, or gas, and the car didn't seem to know when to keep the engine on. I literally had it shut itself off 3 times while I was getting onto the freeway because I took my foot off the gas to let other cars by. This was a 2019 Jetta with about 30k miles on it. You'd have to pay me to drive that thing again. My FC convertible, on the other hand, I could drive for the rest of my life. The top is leaking, the shifter bushings are fucked, the headers are dented, and the trunk stopped opening today, but she is endless fun

Does this mean she’ll be back with this new format? Cus I’m all for that she’s awesome

Great addition to the show, I like her!

Abbie is super. We didn't get to see enough of her on Grand Tour.

I hope she returns.. honestly feel like personality wise, she could actually carry on the series should someone pass or be otherwise unable to do the job anymore.

3:44 yep...that sounds very accurate to what you would expect as a first impression from Jezza

Great interview. I knew it was clarkson, I've watched the shows (TG and GT) for it's entire duration, and all joking around aside, you can tell he's actually the best driver. On top of that, Abbie was a great addition to the Grand Tour, full props to her. She absolutely a great driver, and full of personality... completely charming in a different way from Sabine. While I may be a blokey bloke, I just can't stress how much we need to have women like this sharing these passions with us. Also, I wept hot tears of blood, along with Clarkson (and most of the audience), when he announced the end of the show. Ok, it's great they will be keeping on with the specials, but I really hope we see more of Abbie too. Incidentally, as an Aussie (now in the UK), she's spot on about the v8 supercars. I grew up with that series, have seen them in person, and there is *nothing* like them except F1 and the Champ series when it was around. Pure insane brute force, no driver aids, mixed with some of the most precise and disciplined driving, and tracks that are frankly just insane, including the greatest track in the world... Bathurst. I really hope she gets a seat in a V8 team, she'd be an awesome addition to the series.

As an American, I have immense respect for V8 supercars. I feel like it's what NASCAR should be, rather than just driving in circles for hours on end in cars that have precisely 0 unique features, mechanically or visually. In V8 supercars, yeah the engines are pretty tightly regulated, but you've still got a million different suspension and gearing settings you could run on any track. I don't know if I'd agree that Bathurst is the best track in the world, but it's definitely up there. Personally, I prefer Baku, but I can see where you're coming from. There are definitely a shortage of car girls, though, but I think there's more out there than we might realize, mainly due to those dumbasses who refuse to accept that a woman could possibly like cars. I recently got into an argument with one, in fact. He was claiming that any woman who calls herself a car girl is automatically a gold digger. Pretty sure most women wouldn't like being accused of that just for liking what they like, and he isn't alone, so I think there are a lot of car girls out there that just don't want to be open about it

That personality at the end 😍 !

I rather have an old set of tires so I can waste them without guild. I agree with her on the brakes. Once, I overheated my brakes so bad (Golf GTI) that it slmost was as having no brakes. And this was on open road, not even racing track.

@@robertvandeneijk1284 I'd go with tires first too (If the ones that come with the car are worn, old, for the wrong surface or bad), the best brakes won't help you if your tires loose traction. Unless you want to do some drifting on a flat (safe) surface, where your brakes won't overheat either.

@@nirfz I guess it depends what you want to do. If lap times is a thing, of course tires will have a major impact. With better tires you even have to brake less. But I'm just looking for the fun factor. And I know from experience I have more fun with a car when I know the tires will be replaced next week anyway. That's the direction I'm thinking. I don't mind a little less grip. I love pushing the limits of a car in snow and rain too (even on summer tires).

@@robertvandeneijk1284 I don't mind if you take your tires to their end before replacing them in a safe envirement, but my point is: Bigger Brakes are vital for driving spirited, but good tires are vital for driving! 2 Examples: 1) Long ago i bought a set of summer tires, i had never heard before. (only once in my life). They got loud after one season and as i was about to learn, started to dislike wet weather. When i turned left at a crossing in the city, hoping to get through before the lights switched, the rear of the car suddenly tried to overtake. It didn't help that the automatic gearbox changed down exactely at the moment the weight of the car shifted to the right. As there was no clutch, i had to "ride out" the drift and managed to neither hit the byciclist on my left nor the pedestrians on the right (waiting to cross the street). Luckily i had the right reflexes and my seating position was good. But afterwards i headed home very cautious and quite slow. 2) In my >20 years of driving i had to do a fair number of emergency brakings (on Autobahns, in the city; on snow, ice, in the dry, in the wet...). Most cars have adequate brakes for that (they can cope with one such braking at a time). Imagine you have to do such an action because a child runs into the street. Could you psychologically handle it, when you hit the child because of your choice to use bad/wrong/old/wornout tires?

I would love to see Eaton as a 4th presenter. She just seems to fit so well with them, and the episode with her racing their GT cars in that old beater was great.

Like many others we don't watch for the cars or driving... Its comedy gold!

Clarkson was a friend of my older brother back home in Rotherham, UK. He was in his 20s then and couldn't even drive a car. I have great memories of him visiting our family home on a 50cc moped with L plates attached.

Look at their respective race records. Any of the Stigs would eat her for breakfast on the track.

Abbie is perfect for GT. Well done for finding her👏🏼👏🏼

She’s been behind the wheel on the track quite sum. She must’ve started real young. You can somewhat tell based on her “helmet neck” (a muscular neck do to the long use of an automotive racing helmet that can weigh between 1.4 and nearly 2 kilos). She’s a brilliant, talented young lass. Glad to hear words from her.

She's super likeable, wouldn't mind seeing more of her in the show besides driving! Added bonus of hearing more of the Yorkshire accent ^^

Earrrllyyy But something is missing *lexus in midnight club* Midnight Club cancelled soz

I hope they find ways to incorporate her into season 4 and beyond!

Abbie is as great as I thought she'd be! Her wit is as quick as she is on the track!

I wanted to be a V8 Supercars driver for a while in my teens 😄 it's traditionally been a very Australian series with very Australian cars... now that there are no cars made in Australia, the focus has broadened a bit from the two horse race of old, which i think makes it a touring series with potential
