I'm not really a big Richard Hammond fan. He's OK, but I think May and Clarkson are much more integral to the show. The US version isn't that bad anymore either. I watched some of the recent episodes and they're ok. Though a LOT of the challenges are directly from the UK version. Like the "RV challenge." Tanner had a Porsche with a rocket on top very similar to James May's Lotus plus capsule thing. Rut had a Civic that expanded kinda like Hammond's Land Rover. And Adam had a car with a a building on top like Jeremy's Citroen with the high rise.
