The major presenters of the television series—Richard Hammond, James May and Jeremy Clarkson—are regular contributors, along with the series' production staff. Tame racing driver The Stig also regularly features in their car tests, though only communicates his thoughts and feelings through the articles of others.
It is Britain's leading general interest car magazine in sales terms, with over 200,000 issues sold a month (July–December 2007).[1]
