Default 5th Gear

I do enjoy a bit of Driven. Presented by three proper racing car drivers who have been there and done that. Watching Tiff drive those cars is a masterclass in control on the limit, the way he holds those powerslides is amazing and they never violently snap back they just seem to fall back into line. Respect is due.

Oh, and VBH is lush.

So when is Driven on?

I think he got confused if he thinks VBH and Tiff are on Driven. That was Mikey B, Plato and Penny on C4.

While ago mind.

I agree, tiff can put on some very impressive and entertaining driving! I especially liked the control the bike journalist had on that ducati!

I don't know about anyone else, but I find the recent features that Top Gear have hosted on that beach very entertaining! How much fun does that look, although I don't envy the chap who has to clean the car off afterward.

Confused, you're right, I meant 5th Gear. I think my brain has been scrambled by thoughts of VBH
