Yea I'm betting he deserved that fat lip. There's a lot of guys that could produce that show, but only one Clarkson. Star in a reasonably priced car, will never be the same without his banter.
I really hope its just a short thing. Top Gear means Clarkson too. Punch happened, so what, deal with it. Close/change the show just so the butthurt producer can keep his pride? meh..
hope it breaks the internet.
