Sources say co-presenters Richard Hammond and James May – and the entire Grand Tour crew – might also be job hunting when series three filming is complete in the summer.

Clarkson, Hammond and May signed a multi-million-pound deal to move to Amazon’s subscription service in 2015. The trio’s big-money move came after Clarkson’s BBC contract was not renewed following an incident in which he attacked a Top Gear producer.
Clarkson had fronted 22 series of the BBC show.
The Grand Tour producer Andy Wilman – another former Top Gear man – said yesterday: ‘We are focusing on series three at the moment.’ Clarkson declined to comment.
