JC has a slipped disc.

Read today that Clarkson has a slipped disc. That means he isnt allowed to drive. So we wont get to read his great road tests for a few months now.. I have most of them and they are all really good. We can just hope that he gets well soon.

Does anyone know where to get his great articles from The Sun? He writes every Saturday.

Whats even worse is that for the next few months, i'll have to waste 350MB (per week) on Hammond and May. LOL

Better stick with 5th Gear until JC gets back.

Two discs.......too much to lose. Will be very painful I suppose.

I think it's time JC got his discs replaced with some Carbon Ceramic ones. Hehe

Hmmm...titanium is already being used as an augmenting material. Not too far to go for carbon fibre/ceramic!

All is not lost for Top Gear. Someone is taking his place till JC recovers...... someone really wild!
Unconfirmed reports, but I believe it's none other than Sabine Schmitz!!!

Better road tests???

Wow!!! If its her... we are gonna see some rubber tearing action on the track. Sad part is .. no one can actually be as humourous as Clarkson

Sabine Schmitz, as in tail-sliding diesel Jaguar at the N-ring?! Holy sauerkraut! Now we don't need a Stig! She is pretty funny, if you can get ze Deutsche humour!
