Think that the new McLaren P1 supercar seems pretty tremendous following its launch at Geneva this year? We do, too. And now, after seeing the reaction the ultra-performance McLaren has gotten from McLaren Formula One driver, Checo (Sergio) Perez, we're even more excited for our chance at some ...

The Stig makes his return to Top Gear USA on the History Channel tonight, though it looks like the circumstances could be better.
