Yeah, not cool. Just because you have information doesn't mean you should share it. Why ruin the surprise?

Knowing Top Gear, they'll probably hire a new Stig. I believe this is the second or third one.

Just a couple months ago they revealed Michael Schumacher as the Stig, guess that was a hoax?

This has happened multiple times, and there has been more than one stig. The original was Perry Mccarthy (aka black stig) which he revealed in a book he wrote. Then they created the white stig after killing off black stig. I believe others have been listed as Ben Collins and Michael Schumacher along with multiple stand ins.
