It's very odd

Nobody seems to have pointed out that we are going to need a new Stig now that the old one has been shot off in the general direction of Mars by SpaceX.

Unless Captain Black Stig gets retrometabolized or something...

It's his American cousin's sister's mother's uncle's cousin's son. Space Stig.

Works for me

At least he has a much better soundtrack than TG ever gave him.

True. But in space nobody can hear Bowie sing...

Well, canonically, the Starman communicates in radio waves rather than sound.

Good point. Well, I hope Stiggy has a good music selection and plenty of batteries on board. Since it's a Tesla the latter point is probably taken care of...

Well, that assumes The Stig isn't able to drive back to earth in time for the next filming. I'll admit it doesn't sound likely, but this is the Stig we're talking about.

Well, maybe he can stop off on Mars and pick up Spirit and Opportunity and bring them home...
