It was on last week on itv4 or whatever, I usualy think hes a bit of a
knob but he was amazed he held it himself in the interview after.

Knob maybe but top racer.

I dont know Mark, it has to be his 5th Gear stuff. I remember him
years ago doing BTTC and he never stood out personality wise as
'a cock'. Maybe its Tiffany Dells fault.

Never really listened to him much.
He made a lot of enemies through his racing and attitude to others over the years.

A lot of people I know who've raced against him dislike him for his aggressive and dangerous style on track, and his personality off it.

There was a fair amount of luck in that save, all you can do is put on full lock and floor the throttle in a FWD car and hope it comes back into line - the gradient probably helped there too.
