And, yes, it has; especially with the news that Chris Evans will be the new host of Top Gear on the BBC UK.
Clarkson broke the bombshell in an interview The Sunday Times, which published June 19. The new show is expected to be announced within the next few weeks, most likely on Netflix.
The final episode of TG, which Clarkson had to dub to finalize, is scheduled to air on BBC2 in the UK on June 28, with hopeful airing in the US sometime soon thereafter.
