Questions to The (old) Stig at Silverstone

[Abe Froman]

Hi All,

Wondered if I can ask a favour.

Working with Ben this weekend at Silverstone. Just wondered if any of you had any questions you'd like to ask him..make them a bit different. We have had a fair few all along the same lines, but I'd quite like some off the wall suggestions that I know only PH can deliver.

Cheers all!

Who initially had the idea to pretend to fall out with the Top Gear team in order to generate publicity that would benefit both parties?

Hahaha that's the spirit!

How did he come to get the job in the first place?

[The Stiglet]

If he's so good, why hasn't he/doesn't he have a proper drive somewhere? Was it a money problem?

I know I'm the Son of Stig but Dad and I don't really talk....

[CocoUK]

Which of the the Top Gear presenters would you - kill, punch & have a pint with?

[StevieBee]

Who's quickest? Original Stig? Old Stig? New Stig?

There's only one way to find out.....and can you please post the photos here.

Thanks

The stig v's boss cerb (phil) both in a 4.5 cerb at silverstone. Who would win?

[Great Dane]

What does he prefer coupe or open (Mike Newton prefers open)

[williamp]

Why did you insist on using a different (wrong?) line through one of the corners, when all the F1 drivers (and new stig) take a new, faster line

Why have you got your head so far up your own A**E- is it a racing drivers thing?

[neilski]

Has he ever sniffed a badger?

[Gazzab]

When working for Top Gear did he ever fancy working on a motoring programme instead?

Hahahaha like this.

I'll present all of the questions (including Neilski's) and see how game the responses are. It will just be a short quickfire iphone interview, should be fun.

Keep em coming.

When/where will the interview be published? It would be nice for us question posers to find out his answers.

Here's another one: What job/work has he enjoyed doing most since leaving Top Gear?

[Henry Fiddleton]

Did anyone follow-through, at the follow through, including yourself?

Following-on from that: What car and who was driving when you were most scared as a passenger?

As a video on his website and YouTube, sometime next week. I'll let you all know.

Think he answers that in his book IIRC.

I've no doubt.

(I have the book, he signed it at Le Mans for me in fact, but I've not read it yet.)
