Nice to see we don't have to wait one more year to see a Scuderia review

jeremy mentioned that he was supposed to drive the scuderia around the track this week for filming but someone crashed it before he got a chance. I wonder if they will have a replacement for him ready in time?

Sounds nice, but I could swear I heard Jeremy say during the news in last episode that they were supposed to be filming the 430 Scuderia feature this week, but because some idiots have crashed, it's not gonna happen. Let's hope they can still film it in time...

Sounds once again fabulous I also hope that they manage to film the Scuderia review in time... I want to hear Jeremy say that it is the best Ferrari ever

Jeremy already declares that the Scuderia is his current favorite Ferrari in the January 2008 issue of Top Gear

That's what I thought... no 430 Scuderia.

First of all, Top Gear is still on BBC Two this Sunday, but it's on at 9pm instead of the usual 8pm.

So that's 9 O'CLOCK. PM. An hour later than usual.

Which is probably quite fortunate, considering that the star in the reasonably priced car is none other than Lily's sweary dad Keith Allen, so expect a Morse Code style beep fest come the repeat on Wednesday (which is on at the normal time of 7pm).

The Stig takes out the mightily impressive Ascari A10 for a power lap, and James races some yoofs on BMXs in Budapest. They're on the bikes, he's in a Fiat 500.

And as you might remember Jeremy saying on last week's show, the big news is that this Sunday sees the three of them take part in their first ever competitive event, the punishing Britcar 24 hour race at Silverstone, using the fuel that they started growing last season.

It promises to be one hell of a show.
Will be nice to see what the TG Team can do in the 24H race with their BMW 330dti Sport.
