The presenters in the new series are the most knowledgeable drivers on TV – a line-up of exceptionally talented motor racers and journalists.
Tiff Needell (professional racing driver and motoring journalist),Vicki Butler-Henderson (racing driver and motoring journalist) and Jonny Smith (serial petrolhead and motoring journalist) will race wheel to wheel in high-octane track tests, present exclusive reviews of the world’s newest supercars, offer essential consumer advice on the issues that matter to motorists and witness spectacular crashes conducted in the name of road safety.
Each episode will include a “Team Test” of an affordable new car, involving all the presenters and - from time to time - there will be reviews of classic cars and affordable, but never dull, second-hand buys.
Along the way the regular presenting team will be joined by various guests, who may be expert drivers in their own right, or TV/sports celebrities who are up for a challenge.
