    Richard's impressions of the old school Top Gear presenters are absolutely hilarious! I reckon he should do them as some kind of comedy skit 😂

    Never heard Jonny mention Smith & Sniff on the late brake show either. Seems a very easy and obvious way to get it out there?

    Hey Richard, I bumped into you and Johnny at Goodwood festival of speed. I was the American. As you were laughing at Ben Collins/the Stig to smile. In just that short bit of interaction with you guys it really made my week. Thanks for being cool and talking with us.

    RP was always my least favourite writer on EVO magazine, I find his topic and approach rather weird… at times, I actually stopped reading his stuff it was pointless.
