Top Gear Drops First Teaser Of Next Season: Video

With all the attention being thrown in the direction of The Grand Tour, it would be easy – even understandable – for a lot of us to forget about Top Gear. That’s especially true with The Grand Tour being everything it’s hyped up to, stumbles and all. But the BBC isn’t going down without a fight. The long-running show is coming back for another season and it even has a new teaser to get us all excited for what’s to come.

The teaser itself isn’t that long – it runs for just 21 seconds – but it does reveal something crucially important. We see the three people that are expected to be the show’s three main hosts. There’s Matt LeBlanc, who officially takes the reigns from the departed Chris Evans as the show’s main presenter. Then there’s Chris Harris and Rory Reid, two auto journalists who, together with LeBlanc, were considered as the best presenters from the last season.

All together, the three are apparently involved in a race of some sort with three beat-up vehicles with LeBlanc instructing Harris and Reid to keep their hands off of the steering wheel of their cars. Hilarity then ensues as all three drivers participate in hands-free racing on a snow-covered desert. Could they have been at the Sahara when snow fell on the desert for the first time in 37 years back in the days before Christmas?

That’s a question that only Top Gear can answer, but for now, let’s keep that on the back-burner. What’s important is that the new season is crashing into our TVs soon and basing it from the disaster that was last season, our expectations for the new season are set lower than it should. That should give LeBlanc, Harris, and Reid a chance to show that they’re the hosts Top Gear should’ve had in the first place.
