Watch The Stig virals on YouTube

To coincide with the revamp of the Top Gear website the team have launched a series of 'viral' videos starring the show's mysterious racer The Stig.

In one of the videos, The Stig is shown at a brainstorming session in the BBC's HQ.

Mikey Harvey, editorial director of TopGear.com, tells the camera, "One of the most exciting things about the relaunch of TopGear.com is that everyone on the team has got something different to contribute."



The next scene shows The Stig alone with a writer during the brainstorming session, arms folded, sitting at a desk and, as per usual, saying nothing.

The Stig's real identity has been the subject of intense speculation; Ask.com revealed that 'Who is The Stig?' was the ninth most asked question on its search engine in 2008.

Despite claims that the mystery man is former Formula One champion Damon Hill and Jamiroquai singer Jay Kay, his true identity remains a closely guarded secret.

The new Top Gear website, an offshoot to the hugely popular TV show hosted by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May - with appearances by The Stig - features news, videos, car reviews blog and games.
