  As another fan of top gear and the grand tour I’m sad to see them go. In any show where we grow to love the hosts as much as the material/subjects it’s hard to replace them, and it will just never be quite the same. I do however believe there is a great solution to ease the pain.

  Fasten your seatbelts folks and get ready to help the trio select the new hosts. A competition type show where the potential new grand tour hosts have to complete challenges . Things like driving miss daisy, contestants are given a buy and build budget for a 4 door vehicle that must make it through an off-road course. Here’s the kicker, “miss daisy” will be one of the trio in the back seat with a tray of tea and cookies. The object is to reach the end of the course while spilling the least of the tea on our backseat host. Easy shenanigans setup, good fun, just one example.

  Now let’s make this even better, viewers get to vote on the contestants they would like to see on the next hosts. These aren’t pass/ fail elimination challenges, they all stay beginning to end. We get to have a chance to see who these people are and in the end decide in a top 3 vote who will be the next top gear hosts.

  Ideally in this new version of grand tour the original trio becomes the dictators of subjects and missions for the new. It gets them out of the action while still keeping them in play. A passing of the baton.
