Chris Harris, Sabine Schmitz and David Coulthard 'Confirmed' As Top Gear Hosts
After a very difficult gestation period it appears that the new version of Top Gear might not be as bad as many critics have made out. The Sun has reported that after much deliberation, Chris Evans has picked Chris Harris, David Coulthard and German racing driver Sabine Schmitz to join him as the show’s new hosts.
This decision hasn’t come easy, with The Sun reporting that this choice led to executive producer Lisa Clark (the replacement for Andy Wilman) and script editor Tom Ford leaving the show. A source for The Sun said that Lisa’s departure had “been a real shock” and caused “a lot of upheaval” within the production team.
Although the press has reported that Harris and Schmitz are complete ‘unknowns’, we know just how good this show could really be. It’s hard to predict just how the new hosts will interact on camera, but with this level of talent and online support, new Top Gear could be a force to be reckoned with!
So, is the announcement of three new incredible hosts enough to convince you to tune into the new show? Let us know!

Its not gonna be the same 😭
I think this is a desesperate/pathetic attempt of BBC to bring back the audience…
Everyone going on about Chris Harris. Meanwhile … David Coulthard THE driving guru. Who needs Evans,
I KNEW Jezza wasn’t kidding when he said that they should replace Hammond with Sabine!
I’ll probably still watch it because well.. Chris Harris and Sabine. But it will never be the same as is was before. Nevertheless now actually looking forward to the new top gear, cause I think it will still be a great show.
It’s not really a shock is it. Sanbine is a familiar face on topgear, coulthad is known by everyone and harris is known by proper petrol heads. I think this culd be a pretty good show, as long as Evans doesn’t act like a prat like her does on TFI Friday.
As happy as I am for Mr. Harris, I fear that television will change him. Or rather the BBC will. Hopefully he continues his YouTube stuff too. I guess only time will tell.
Well what a damn coincidence, i was watching a review of the ferrari 488 gtb in the morning and now i saw this post and i was like “that guy looks familiar…” and i realized then that chris harris was the guy who was doing the review on the ferrari.
It was the first time i saw him. Any opinions on him or what else does he do?
2 top car shows coming soon! Thank you England! <3
