Sabine Schmitz is the only good part of the show.


Sabine feels like she would've fit right in on old Top Gear. She's funny, interesting, smart and makes her segments feel entertaining and dramatic to watch. It's just incredibly frustrating that this is the version she appears on as a regular host.

Look at the challenge from the last episode. Her sub-plot about running out of change was entertaining. Yet you just know that if it was old Top Gear, the three presenters would criticise each other mercilessly for their choice of car (or bike, if Richard picked it). In this show, Chris, Matt and Sabine barely even interacted!

Sabine is the only one who can hold my interest when she's on screen. Chris Evans is loud, nerdy and uncool, Matt seems bored out of his mind, Eddie is often embarrassing to watch and the other two are the most boring, generic presenters I've ever seen on an entertainment show. Those two feel like they've been lifted directly from 90s Top Gear.
