'Their brand of political correctness' being to effectively sack someone for assaulting a fellow member of staff, as you would expect for any other company to do if it happened anywhere else? Or would you expect the BBC to let him away with it 'because he's famous/makes the BBC a lot of money'?
where have you been this has been done to death more than once
Inconvenient as it may be for the Clarkson apologists, it doesn't make it any less true does it? rolleyes

Thinking semi seriously for a second, what with the BBC and their love for ticking boxes.

This guy might not be a bad shout, and to be fair to him he is not a bad presenter.

But maybe his disability would be too limiting..

Guy Martin should.
Hopefully he won't for reasons all ready mentioned on the other thread.

I just don't think he would suit the show.

I think James Bond is a good idea. He loves Astons after all.

"He is now 35 and is expected to retire at the end of the current F1 season. Button currently earns around £8 million per year."

Will have to take a bit of a pay cut then? wink

Well he can drive and give a good opinion on cars, but what about personality? F1 drivers tend not to have much in that department, don't know about him though.

Plato did Fifth Gear and BTCC, no reason JB couldn't juggle to, especially if he goes from F1 to something else like WEC

Originally reported in the Mail so could be a load of old balls but...

Jenson Button has been linked to a shock move from the F1 grid to the television presenter's chair.

The Daily Mail reports that 2009 F1 World Champion could be part of the new lineup for the popular British motoring show "Top Gear."

Earlier this year, the BBC sacked "Top Gear's" controversial presenter Jeremy Clarkson, and co-hosts Richard Hammond and James May said they would also not return.

Button's future in F1 is currently the subject of speculation, as McLaren-Honda holds a one-sided 'option' on his services for 2016. He has also been linked with a switch to Williams.

The Daily Mail claims Button is currently "in talks with the BBC about co-presenting 'Top Gear,'" which would put him alongside new host Chris Evans.

"An announcement is imminent," a source reportedly said.

Edit: So much for all that bullst about the public sending in their videos, etc.
