The producers of Top Gear have kept the identity of "The Stig" a closely-guarded secret. With such a wide audience and fan base, that's led to endless speculation over the true identity of the show's phantom test driver, and one British celebrity is now claiming he knows who it is.

Guests on the show's "a star in a reasonably-priced car" segment work with The Stig to perfect their hot lap on Top Gear's test track, but none have ever revealed his identity. Comedian Omid Djalili, however, is insistent that The Stig is actually McLaren's star pilot Lewis Hamilton. Djalili's revelation is based on speculation garnered from speaking with The Stig, who purportedly revealed his age to the comedian, and with the show's producers, who insisted two years ago that the true Stig would become famous by now. Die-hard fans, however, will point to evidence to the contrary. Think Djalili's on to something, or is he just grabbing at gasoline-soaked straws?
Comedian Omid Djalili has claimed that Top Gear's The Stig is F1 driver Lewis Hamilton.

The identity of The Stig, who races in the Star in a Reasonably-Priced Car feature on the show, has never been revealed by producers.

However, Djalili claims he has worked out that Hamilton must be the driver by questioning the show's bosses when he guested on the show.

"Do I know who The Stig is? Yes!" Djalili told Nuts. "When I was on Top Gear around two years ago, I asked the The Stig how old he was and he said, 'I'm 21' - the same age Lewis Hamilton would've been two years ago.

"And when I asked the producers who The Stig is, they said, 'All you need to know is that, in about two years' time you'll hear a lot about the person who plays him.

"They'll deny it of course because they're sworn to secrecy. I think it's part of the contract. But I'm telling you, it's Lewis Hamilton!"

Find that kind of hard to believe... doubt he has time to race and do the show.

Same, and I doubt Mclaren will let their precious son driving around in a non-merc anyway.

That is BS , "the stig" is Andreas (just_me) , everyone knows that...
