 »  »  »

According to the British Sunday Times, Top Gear's The Stig has been confirmed to be Ben Collins. The British newspaper claims that Ben Collins is The Stig based on his company's financial records. apparently, as soon the new, white, Stig made its first appearance on the show, Ben Collins' company, Collins Autosport, registered a cornerstone year. The new funds in Ben Collins' company have been justified as received for driving services offered to the BBC, and mainly for its show, Top Gear.

This comes after last week's rumor that the BBC is trying to stop the Stig from writing his autobiography.

Ben Collins, who was the source of previous Stig

branded rumors since two years back, is a 35-year-old former Formula 3 driver. He also worked as a stun double for James Bond Quantum of Solace where he "helped" Daniel Craig drive the Aston Martin.

However, it's well known that there isn't just one Stig and that Top Gear is actually using several people to impersonate him. Some are used for driving only and others are used for photo shoots.

In any case, there are too many rumors about Ben Collins being The Stig, for it not be true. At least he's one of them.
