Well at least we now know that the Stig isn’t Fernando Alonso or Lewis Hamilton . At the British Grand Prix last weekend, the Stig was present to drive one lucky man around the Silverstone track.

Before the F1 cars went at it, the Stig gave one lucky man, who one £5million in the lottery, the ride of his life. The experience to sit in the same car as the Stig for three hot laps was £35,000. The money was donated to the Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital charity.

"Whoever’s in that car is a seriously good driver," said Fernando Alonso. "I’ve no idea who he is, but he’s definitely ex-F1," Alonso continued.

The Stig reportedly got behind the wheel of the Batmobile as well.
