Sabine Schmitz Made Chris Evans Sick During Top Gear Filming
The more we hear about the BBC’s post-Clarkson Top Gear plans, the more it sounds like a train wreck. There have been reports of meddling management, a production team that knows nothing about cars and the departure of key staff, plus rumours that host Chris Evans struggles to talk while driving. And if you’ve ever watched an episode of the motoring show, you’ll know talking while driving is kinda key.
It turns out he’s not that great at being a passenger either, as the veteran presenter has been photographed throwing up at the side of Laguna Seca circuit, having been made physically sick after riding shotgun in an Audi R8 V10 Plus driven by co-star Sabine Schmitz.
Despite all the issues involved with filming and behind the scenes, the BBC is still insisting that production of the show is on schedule.
It’s due to kick off in May, and I really do hope the show’s various problems are resolved. Sure, we’ll have Clarkson and co’s new Amazon Prime series to watch, but I reckon we should go by the philosophy of why not both. The presence of Chris Harris and the chance for a completely revamped show has us intrigued - we just have to hope that Evans’ stomach can cope…

And they say,women can’t drive😊
Maybe that’s the reason why he’s throwing up, she can’t drive. [/sarcasm]
Me after jeremy was fired nearly a year ago and now hearing that chris throwing up on set
Meanwhile, next day, he get fired for sickness, then BBC get Jeremy back.
Melons! Where’s Melons?! He did a blogpost recently about it! It’s a well known phenomenon, happens sometimes in rally. Co-driver gets sick and has to puke.
Maybe Sabine just doesn’t like the other guy, so she “offered him a ride” hoping it’d make him resign from the show…
Didn’t Jeremy make himself sick in a Prodrive?
How I feel
I think that was the point—it shows just how good she is and that’ll be part of a segment introducing Schmitz and just how good she is. It’ll probably be part of an episode where they have a ‘rivalry’ then Schmitz really shows whose boss. The on-screen Evans will then no longer be able to s* on Schmitz for the rest of the show, quite unlike the old trio.
Jeez CT, use some sense. This is an opportunity, not a trainwreck.
Well done, Sabine!
If this guy can’t do the job. Why they want him to do the job?
It seems pretty logical to me they need to put a different person…
