Top Gear The Stig

The Stig, introduced in by co-presenter Jeremy Clarkson, is cast as a mysterious “tame racing driver” on Top Gear. He never speaks or removes his helmet on camera.

In the history of BBC’s Top Gear, there were only two official Stigs. Perry McCarthy, a former Formula 1 driver, was the original Stig. He was a black Stig because he wore black overalls during his appearances.

Mr. McCarthy was replaced with a white Stig after he had revealed his identity in his 2002 autobiography entitled Flat Out, Flat Broke. Since then, the true identity of The Stig, was a secret carefully kept by the BBC.

In the first episode of a new season of Top Gear on June 21, 2009, the white Stig took his helmet off for the first time and was revealed as none other than Michael Schumacher. Souce: BBC & Wikipedia

ABC affiliate WZZM13 reported a spokeswoman for the hospital where Benson was treated said he is in serious but stable condition. Benson’s condition probably could be improved sometime Sunday morning.

On the first lap of the Saturday’s race, Johnny Benson’s super modified car became engulfed in flames after it had a collision with Larry Lehnert’s and came to rest on the track off Turn 3.

And Danica Patrick is competing with 30 male drivers including Helio Castroneves, Ryan Briscoe, Dario Franchitti etc. as well as two fellow female drivers Sarah Fisher and Milka Duno at 2009 Indy 500.

As Danica Patrick is a smoking hot woman, many people are googling Danica Patrick Playboy in an attempt to find Danica Patrick Playboy pictures.  Sorry, until so far, Danica Patrick did not pose topless for Playboy but only did a 20 Questions interview with the mag. From Wikipedia:

After her participation in the 2005 Indianapolis 500, she was asked by Playboy to have her pictures taken to be published in a future edition of its magazine. She declined the offer, but she did participate in a “20 Questions” interview with Jason Buhrmester for the magazine’s July 2007 issue.

Not posing for the Playboy did not mean Danica Patrick couldn’t have some sexy shoots for the other magazines. In fact, Ms. Patrick had posed for FHM as early as in 2003 April and did a swimsuit photos for Sports Illustrated in Febuary 2008. You can click on the thumbnails below to enlarge those pics.

However, this could not rule out the possibility that Danica Patrick would not do a racy photos shoot for Hugh Hefner’s magazine in the future. Until then, we will keep you informed again.
