Muso estimated that Amazon could have lost up to £3.2min revenue in BritAIn alone on episode one because of illegal downloads. Chris Elkins, the chief commercial officer at the company, said: “It is the most illegally downloaded programme ever. It is off the scale in terms of volume.”
之后，Top Gear的另外两位主持人Richard Hammond和James May，以及一位制作人Andy Wilman也出走了。三人与Amazon Prime签约，开始制作新的节目The Grand Tour.
可以说，Clarkson被BBC炒鱿鱼和他自己本身说话口无遮拦有很大关系。虽然Top Gear和The Grand Tour作为电视节目非常成功，但Clarkson本身就是一个争议性人物，曾经抛出一些过分甚至是冒犯性的言论，引发众怒。
打人事件发生后，The Washington Post在一篇报道里就提到过几次典型的案例，比如：
In 2008, while driving a truck on “Top Gear,” Clarkson made a joke implying that “murder[ing] a prostitute” is a common pastime for professional truck drivers. The joke prompted at least one elected official to call for his firing.
The show’s presenters Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May are notorious for insulting, degrading and showing a total lack of respect towards the various nations they visit – seemingly in order to mock the local culturefirst and then to drive around in unique cars as a secondary priority.
该剧的主持人Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond 和James May因为侮辱、贬低他们造访的各个国家而臭名昭着——他们的首要目的似乎是为了嘲弄当地文化，然后才是试车。
In fact, the show helped to present an image of China that made it clear that China is both the world’s most advanced nations in many ways and in others, it remains the world’s most rapidly developing country that continues to grow, evolve, collectively learn and expand its holistic national potential.
