Great to see the proper(non-US) Top Gear back. The Yeti piece was very enjoyable, especially since they do new reasonably-priced reviews once in a blue moon now.

Well, the 599 GTO isn't a race car. They should make a GTO version of the 458 and see how fast that one is.
But, I think the new Stig is a rally driver. The way he handled the rally car...and drifted. If he was still alive I'd say it was Collin McRae.
And he's the fastest Stig ever. Awesome!

That's not the new Stig, though. All the footage of the Australians was shown way back in September as a special for the Top Gear Australia. They filmed all of it just before Collins was finally revealed as the Stig.
It's particularly why I wasn't that impressed with this episode, but then again, the trio were already done with Season 15 when it aired, so I guess BBC wanted to make sure it's UK watchers got a guaranteed chance to see it as well.

SPOILER ALERT
SPOILER ALERT
SPOILER ALERT
Did you see yesterday's Top Gear episode? It is such a deception to see a British show attacking in such a vulgar and ignorant way the Mexican culture. They haven't even tested the Mexican super sports car, yet they are mocking it. They said that the Embassy is filled with guys sleeping because Mexicans are lazy, etc.
Just one note, as a country, yes the U.K. may be much more powerful than Mexico, but as individuals, trust me, there are many Mexicans way more educated, richer, and way more intelligent than many British guys.
What a deception, the BBC is now some sort of idiotic xenophobic ignorance supportive "institution".
Oh, and by the way, if it wasn't for a Mexican, the Manchester United (the most powerful and beloved/hated soccer team in the UK) would be in a very different place in the premier league now.
I can't imagine Mexicans talking in a TV boxing show about British boxers, "hahaha, imagine a British boxer? All slow, trying to copy the American heavyweights in everything, haha, well, they copy everything from Americans, not just boxing technique, because they are now the little brother, haha, and since they eat awful food, they can't be strong, they can't box, they are like big fat girls dancing, oh, they even can't play soccer now, they had to hire a Mexican to bring magic back to their "premier" league, hahaha, etc..."
My God, the world is sadder every day...
I have in high esteem a lot of British people, so obviously this is not a rant against them, it is just a note to show that some stupid people should not have access to the media in any part of the world.
I would love to see that Mexican car in GT5, that would be cool, don't you think?

Your nothing special,
They mock/ stereotype/ insult as many people as possible,
When someone complains they just insult them more,
The show is better for it as then they don't bow down to anyone,
Because once they bow down to one group they have to bow down to another, then another......
Accept it and move on, next week I'm sure you'll be laughing at someone elses slagging, which you've no doubt done in the past,
Oh, and to check for cultural bias, check my location, I have no reason to defend the Brits

They constantly take cracks at the Americans, French Italians etc etc. Yeah, it was a bit long winded but it was all in jest on a show that is purely for entertainment.

Sadly, yes, it was the first episode I ever watched.
i'm sorry to hear you were offended mate
but i highly doubt they are being serious, and are defiantly just stereotyping doing it for entertainment purposes
i wouldn't take it to heart mate 👍

Man, many friends told me that the show was so cool, and that I should watch it because they love cars as well, etc., and I watch THAT episode as a first approach?
I understand, it is entertainment, but the guys just kept the slurs going on for a long time. Anyway, maybe it is indeed cultural, in Mexico you would never see a show with such an approach on "fun". We may have a lot of defects, but we are almost always respectful of other cultures.
Dude, even the Mexican Embassy sent a complaint to the British Government, so you can measure how bad this got perceived by Mexicans.
What is the point of globalization? What is the point of all the telecommunications getting all the world together? I really enjoy talking to a guy on the other side of the planet, and learning and sharing a lot of things thanks to today's technology. And people use that just to be disrespectful to others around the world? Man, that is like the idea of fun we had back in elementary school, sad indeed. A joke is one thing, but a persistent slurring is another thing.
Anyway, I'll just watch the next show to see if something happens.

I loved how Boris Becker said "Stig"
Schtick... damn great xD
Boris Becker is really cool, I got an autograph back in the late 80's when he was the bomb since he came to Mexico City to play for the German Davis Cup Team.
Now that dude is on every TV show, I saw him on the Austrian show of that very tall curly hair guy, can't remember the name of the show, but it is about classical music performers and some entertainment elements. He ran with a glass of water and gave it to Cecilia Bartoli because she was thirsty, or something...

Oh my God, now Mexican attacks against the Brits are all around the web, youtube, etc...
These retarded idiots from Top Gear just don't know the consequences of their "fun" factor.
It is really, really sad from both sides, but it is even sadder when everything started from an "incredibly evolved, sophisticated, hard working and super progressive" British trio of ignorant clowns. Indeed, they are way superior, lol, those poor persons, if I were them how could I be proud of my "work" in front of my kids... Sad like hell...

Yes dude, and it sucked. Anyway, they will always be ignorant and clownish, no matter if they brush rants or not. When they get real old and look back at their lives they won't see much accomplished, and life will laugh at them real hard.

You are making a huge deal out of this & doing nothing but providing them with more entertainment. I guess you hate comedians as well, right?
They won't see much accomplished? Their yearly salaries & families seem to say otherwise.

How about this then, it has 350 millions viewers worldwide. How's that not an achievement?
Perhaps Mexican comedy doesn't compare to British comedy. But I don't see why they should change it to meet the demands of international audiences when we British are more than capable of voicing politically correct terms ourselves.

I see nothing different considering that at the end, both comedians & TG crew will have poked fun at entire culture/race for a few laughs. People like you though who get upset & think they're being serious will have missed out.
And again, their lives say otherwise. I suggest you start digging back through TG archives. These men have done a lot of things most people will never do.

My God, here we go again...
Fame & fortune are not an intellectual achievement.
Anyway ExigeEvan and McLaren, you love your stuff, maybe it's your cultures, you guys think insulting other countries in "comedy" is correct and worth praising.
You guys also think a person accomplishes a lot in life with fame and/or fortune no matter if their job is a clownish rarity or offends millions.
Cool, I just don't feel the same way about it. They will always be ignorant clowns to me. No matter if they went into a volcano or tested a car at the north pole or whatever.
And anyone can insult my people and my country as much as they want. In the end, ME MYSELF as an individual can be as competitive as any other of the best guys in the world in my area of expertise, just like many other fellow Mexicans, and never grab shelter from my country's achievements without doing anything in life myself, like many other first world country mediocre people.
British clowns or whatever they are or do, no matter how extravagant their stuff is, will always be that, ignorant (yes, rich and famous, woohoo) clowns.
Now, since I don't want to keep a bad image for Britain which of course has great intellectual offerings, I will go back to the beautiful King Arthur by Henry Purcell, and just stop wasting my energy with clownish ignorant bums. I mean, at their age doing that kind of stuff, and having that puerile sense of humor, my God... poor imbeciles...

So? Neither is being the world's fastest man over 100m or scoring goals for Man Utd.
As a Welshman who recieves more than enough jokes in regards to my nationality, yes I do!
Then let them be ignorant clowns. But the 2 locations they've been to, amongst others that have been done on the show and others, are achievements.
And what would your area of expertise be?
It's funny how in the same episode the Australians took a beating and yet I don't see any complaining.

If Australians don't feel offended it is their way of thinking, not mine.
If you as a Welshman accept/enjoy jokes from the ones that oppressed your people for years, it is your way of thinking, not mine.
If you think that sports are an INTELLECTUAL achievement, it is your way of thinking, not mine.
If you do not know my area of expertise, it is logical, and things just don't matter a bit or change anything for me.
Anyway, it's cultural, you'll never understand.

Then why are you complaining about the jokes in a British television program when you will gladly hide behind the veil that "it's cultural"?
If you don't like it fine, whether for cultural reasons or not. But to attack the show and it's presenters because it doesn't entertain a culture that it was never aimed at is absurd.

1.- Because I got interested on it after many recommendations from car enthusiasts and never expected an idiotic racial slur fun element with such preponderance. (BTW, I never watch TV since 99% of it is aimed at retarded people.)
2.- Because it gave me curiosity since it is featured in GT5.
3.- Because that crappy show popped in a pretty reliable channel (until now, BBC) which happens to be included in my Satellite TV system.
4.- Our shows are not intended to be watched by British people and yet, we never offend them. So according to your logic, if the show is not intended for the guys being offended/attacked, then everything is fine. That is called "cowardice" or "hypocrisy".

What a shame as a mexican I really feel disappoint for the disgusting jokes than the top gear Cast made about my people and my country, I can tolerate if they think about the typical stereotopic image of the guy with the hat under a Cactus, but that "joke" is racist and it really offended me 👎👎👎

Sadly, yes, it was the first episode I ever watched.
And KILLINATOR: Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Australia, New Zealand, India, Jamaica, Belize, etc., rule!
Don't take it serious, the run with all stereotypes including Australian at every chance the can (especially American), it's all in fun.
kanjifreak
Exactly, thats the whole point, they also make fun of themselves a lot too.
I am curious why are Mexicans (two in this thread now) taking the show so serious, they're not supposed to be serious. Lighten up or just don't watch it.
