In respect of the RPC's, they are constantly driven hard, each celeb gets a good few laps practise, and you look at the amount of names on the Time Table, they've had a very hard life, so things like gearboxes could be understandable.

As for the comparison between TG and 5G. Well I watched the show last night and had a big smile on my face at several points. James May retrieving his umbrella. Hammond swearing at May. Trevor Eve shouting at Clarkson. And the Stig being delivered to the IOM.

I just dont get that with 5G. And thats why TG is percieved as the better show.
