Jay Leno, whom we wish would again start wearing that plaid suit he wore in those 1980s pizza ads, came out in full support of Top Gear recently, calling the show "The best motoring programme in the world," and goes on to talk about the inherent risks in life and how Hammond and Steve Irwin embraced them head on. He then praises the crashworthiness of the Ferrari Enzo, which, we're starting to believe might be the safest car on the road. Its owners might not be the safest drivers however... Still, somebody has to do the real-world impact testing, we suppose. Now when're they gonna put Jay in a reasonably-priced car? [Thanks to Mason for the tip.]
