Can't say I'm surprised.
Even without the Freddie Flintoff crash situation I think Top Gear's format had become a bit stale and I think a lot of fans never really got over Clarkson, Hammond and May no longer hosting the show.
I grew to really like the new cast and I hope Freddie makes a full recovery. After Hammond's accidents you would think the BBC would have learned but in Freddie's crash he was doing 130 mph in an open top 3 wheel vehicle with no helmet. Reminds of Radiohead's "High and Dry".
I never really liked the show after Clarkson, Hammond and May left until this final lineup. While Freddie, Harris and McGinty were not as good as the other three they were at least entertaining and lots of fun.
I never watched it by the time the final lineup were presenting, I'd already given up and moved to watching YouTube car shows or The Grand Tour
