The Stig and Top Gear saga continues this week as the British press is speculating that the next one may be a female driver. According to the British tabloid The Sun, there are 4 to 1 chances that the next Stig will be a female, or at least these are the chances some bookmakers give it.
According to a William Hill spokesman, the bookmakers have received several calls from people betting that the next Stig will actually be a girl. We're wondering what's Clarkson's opinion on this subject.
However, you must not put too much weight on this rumor, since the same bookmakers are also giving 5/1 chances that the next Stig will have a pink suit.
A lady Stig will be quite an interesting twist for the Top Gear show, since all its host have been men.
