He might have. I never saw that. I would be surprised, but then, my life is full of surprises, or perhaps, shocks.

Didn't he crash the Mclaren?

He's had a few bingles along the way. He has also had a few crashed by others. He can afford it. Thing is, he's a car nut. I first encountered him, other than his hilarious 'Roll Call' skits with the Pythons, in Car Magazine, back when adults wrote for it, Other thanJames May, obviously.
