Who ever the Stig turns out to be, this is all very clever of the BBC! Nobody talks about "Tiff used to be much better", everyone's just intrigued about this guy's identity.

Brilliant marketing, I say.

With a strong English accent?!

There's no way a Spaniard could speak english that well!

Ok, I have it on good authority that the Stig is.......
Carlos Fandango from Spanish F3 fame. So there it is, if you look at www.carlosfandango.com, out of the name at the top of the site can be made the name "STIG".
What do you all make of it ?

I think the stig is Derek Warwick as he also owns a race school at an air field, don't know which one. Last night on topgear you could see through his visor and it looked like him
