And we’re back! Top Gear returns on June 12 for the 17th season!

And we're back! Top Gear returns on June 12 for the 17th season!

FINALLY! It’s back! The show that we’ve all been waiting for, the best motoring show on the planet! It’s back! Top Gear, the original UK motoring show featuring Jeremy ‘Jezza’ Clarkson, Richard ‘Hamster’ Hammond, and James ‘Captain Slow’ May, will be returning for the 17th season, and will begin airing on June 12. The report comes courtesy of the May issue of the Dutch edition of Top Gear magazine.

If you can’t remember, the hit BBC television program has been on break since the 16th season ended on February 27 with episode 6, in which Hammond drove the Porsche 959 and Ferrari F40, May tested NASA’s new lunar rover and Clarkson raced the sun in a Jaguar XJ.

So what can we expect from season 17? Hard to say – so far we know Clarkson and May have driven a pair of electric cars, we’ve heard the newly-crowned brother-in-law Prince Harry could be making his way to the Dunsfold Aerodrome (a.k.a. the Top Gear test track) and we’ve seen reports that the McLaren MP4-12C may have already claimed the fastest lap time on the board. For everything else, we’ll just have to wait (less than a month now, mind you) to find out.
