Top Gear: Chris Evans Quits in Wake of Rumored Feud With Matt LeBlanc
......Chris Evans has stepped down as a cohost of the BBC’s Top Gear, following weeks and weeks of rumors that there was friction between him and fellow presenter Matt LeBlanc.
Stepping down from Top Gear. Gave it my best shot but sometimes that's not enough. The team are beyond brilliant, I wish them all the best.
— Chris Evans (@achrisevans) July 4, 2016
As recently as late June, there was talk that LeBlanc had threatened to walk away from the motoring series himself, due to what sources called a “frosty” atmosphere among the presenters as well as Evans’ jealousy toward his castmates.
Evans and LeBlanc were part of a revamp for Season 23 of Top Gear, which opened with some of the series’ lowest ratings ever. Soon into shooting their debut cycle, there were reports of unprofessional on-set behavior by Evans, which acting BBC TV director Mark Linsey dismissed as “rubbish.”
Immediately after Evans tweeted word of his exit, BBC reps got to assuring that LeBlanc, Sabine Schmitz, Rory Reid, Chris Harris and Eddie Jordan would all return for the coming season, to air in 2017, while Evans would possibly not be replaced....
y'all knew it was coming with all the shenanigans happening on the show.......?!

With Evans gone, I'll give the show another look.
I just could not stomach his presentation style.

I still haven't watched the new version yet. They make it so hard to watch unless you live in the UK. You almost have to pirate it.
