So what exactly do you expect from Top Gear? If this episode was no good, what would make it better?

The show was good, the ice race was good, the Bugatti was good, Cruise and Diaz were good, the Senna bit was good!
Its just with no real cars, or news really it has left the realms of being even new Top Gear now. The presenters are motoring journalists after all, no one can say Clarkson is a great interviewer or May is a racing driver they are doing it for our entertainment which is good. Does it keep going on and on as if/when they do end up testing some cars again everyone will complain it is dull rather than some car tests followed by some humour and entertaining pieces!
Bring back Jason Dawe

OCUK, the only place that Fox will spurt out a whole page saying how his ramblings arguing against someone are part and parcel of a discussion forum YET when someone else posts that they didn't enjoy Top Gear the right to have your own opinion is removed.
Overall a great Top Gear.
I think talking about the specs of the RPC would have been more interesting.
This too.

They don't though do they? Every single week they just go OMG THIS SHOW IS SO CRAP and ITS FAKE and SO SCRIPTED.
Every single time... it's hardly an interesting debate of opposing views, is it?

Hehe. That was kind of what I was hinting at. Alonso/Hamilton/Webber etc could put Schumacher ahead of Senna. Schumacher couldn't really but I just found it interesting that he actually said that.I don't think even Schumacher would be egotistical enough to say himself and other than maybe Fangio, who else was he really going to say?
I completely agree with Fox on this occasion. < Someone better write this down.

You didn't say how to make it better....
I'm guessing you'll always moan no matter is shown on Top Gear?
Mclaren F1 vs Ferrari F40 death race. Yaaaaawn, boring.

Nope but unless they want to start an argument (which i suppose could well be the case) they clearly feel strongly enough about it to keep bringing the point up.
Some of the non single line "top gear bashers" do have a point though, case in point was todays Senna segment thats exactly the sort of stuff the show is missing, another great example was the BTCC thing Hammond did, that was equally fantastic, more of that please less of the omg clarksons camper van fell off a cliff.
Less of Clarkson's camper van falling off a cliff? That part was hilarious! It was obvious, but still funny... most people would agree ^_^
Im not moaning, this episode didnt appeal to me.
First bit - boring
Veyron bit - boring, driving in pretty much a straight line till you max out and for what a few mph over the normal Veyron?
Star in car - boring, but did love the 2 wheel control.
Senna bit - not really an F1 person, did seem like a great guy getting out his car mid race though etc etc.

Never seen that clip before..
Emotional, nice is probably the wrong word, but I suppose it's nice to see that these people really do care for what they do.
