James May is exactly like Michael Gambon was about 20 years ago. They like to fiddle around with things, building things in a shed. They have the same sort of dry humour, really funny and interesting takes on some subjects. They even scratch their head the same way.

The final turn is called "Gambon." The video clearly shows Gambon going up on two wheels in the last turn just before crossing the finish line. And Clarkson even refers to the turn as "your corner" during Gambon's second appearance on the show. For the record, the second to last turn is frequently called "The Second to Last Corner."

Three times. First a hop and lean. When he returned to the show on the practice did a spin out, and finally an off road on the timed lap all near the same corner.
