Not having Clarkson or the chemistry of him with Hammond and May will doom any attempt by the BBC to relaunch "Top Gear". Just look at Top Gear USA / Australia as proof of that. Or Fifth Gear. Boring car shows that visually try and match TG with equally as "cool" features, but it all fails.
Interestingly, having watched all his "DVDs" - 100% Clarkson is not tolerable either. His schtick gets tiresome without being balanced out by May / Hammond.
This is a sad sad day today.
