Amazing! One must truly admire the patience and concern for The Hamster's well being that is shown by the truck driver at 0:26.

Even though it was probably scripted, the timing of James coming in then and questioning Hammond which makes him look foolish perfect! All 3 of the boys will never not be funny together!
The 4x4 at 2:40 was Richard saving his own life, and I don't blame him one bit. At that point, his ride was a rolling piece of badly held together junk that could barely drive safely down a flat, straight, and paved road. He barely had any brakes, so continuing was suicide.
1:49 can anybody explain to me how he manages to bite that thing effortlessly. Was that thing actually an edible stuff that they made too look like sun visor....😅
It's a feature on all Ford Fiestas after 2008, it's to help save money and fuel from stopping at motorway services, if you get peckish, have a gnar on your sun-visor, very revolutionary. It's also handy if you are of the vindictive position; has your passenger displeased you this morning? Is it a sunny day? Eat their sun visor, let the blinding rays in, that'll show them!
I do think the clutch failures aren't necessarily Hammond's fault. The Noble was driven HARD at the Nardo Ring and it failed afterwards. Maybe a little bit to blame with the Focus RS and Madagascar. But who knows about who owned that car beforehand.
He put those tracks on the Focus in Madagascar. That episode started out on the perfect roads of Reunion, to which they'd brought sporty not-off-road cars, then they were told they had to go to Madagascar and modified their cars for the terrible roads. Well that's the story anyway, we all know the mods were actually done by a crew of actual professionals, but still at least with the "plot" he gets the blame 100%.
@@quillmaurer6563 I don't remember the episode implying that they'd actually fitted their mods with their own hands. I got the impression that they hired professional mechanics to do the work.
@Lifthil----I think Hammond chose tracks because he was hoping they would break down. It added a bit of aggravation, just like a real trip like that probably would, a little zip to the narrative, and was more fun to watch afterwards. That being said, I don't see how anyone can say that parts breaking down on a roughly-used car can be exclusively Hammond's fault.Good luck to you.
The fast and furious franchise can’t destroy cars the way he does. Best bit was when he smashed the one of a kind astra with a tractor and said, how many of those are there in the world, and May said ‘since you did that, none. ‘
Hearing Jeremy say "Oh dear" and immediately say "Oh my god" is funny to me. It's such a 180 between the two different scenes. Different moods too i guess
Another special moment was when he pulled the "guide rope" with James proceeding to give an onslaught of verbal abuse, look forward to a part 2 as there's certainly no shortage of moments 🤣
You would have thought after like 30 years, they'd have learnt and started to keep Craig away from stuff. Hell, you'd have thought they'd have learnt that in 15 seconds with him being the platonic Scouser.

So, this is where the BBC's minimal and Amazon's rather large budgets ended up, fixing Hammond's breakages.
I think the budget is split 90/10. 90% to fix things that Richard breaks, and 10% to the actual show!

I mean even if it wasn’t wouldn’t he have come to check what the fuss was about considering Hammond was shouting from the top of his lungs earlier.
