Jeremy Clarkson has teased ‘slightly scary ground’ for the next two seasons of The Grand Tour.
The former Top Gear host, 63, will once again be back with co-stars James May and Richard Hammond for new series The Grand Tour: Eurocrash as they tackle a 1,400-mile trip from Gdansk in Poland, through Slovakia, Hungary and Slovenia.
A gripping new trailer for the upcoming series has been released, with the clip showing the trio up to their usual hair-raising motoring tricks.
As the promo opens, James, 60 is seen hurtling down an airport runway in a tiny classic car as he attempts to drive up the ramp and into the hold of a giant moving cargo plane.
Jeremy is then seen in an equally minuscule car as he says: ‘We’re doing 1,400 miles across four countries. We’re going behind what used to be the Iron Curtain.’

In another scene, Jeremy is seen lowering himself into a racing car at the side of the track, before he declares: ‘I genuinely can’t get out. What do you want me to do?!’
Richard, 53, hits back: ‘Be less fat!’
The group are seen traversing Eastern Europe, including a stop to visit the sights of Kraków in Poland.
Elsewhere, they are seen testing a flying car as the vehicle blasts down a runway and lifts into air, while in another dramatic scene Jeremy is seen out of control and hurtling down a steep grass hill as he yells: ‘Make it end!’
Speaking before the new season on Amazon Prime Video, Jeremy said: ‘For the next one – in fact, the next two – we’re back on slightly scary ground, doing things that we used to do when we were in our 30s and 40s. But now we’re in our 50s and 60s, so I’m slightly nervous about the next two.
‘Let’s just say we’re going back to Africa, and this one’s a hard one. It’s hard if you’re young and fit, but I’m really not fit. I’m very fat. And I’m 63 now.’
Richard previously admitted the trio are in ‘real peril’ when they tackle the show’s epic stunts as things can always ‘go wrong’, even on television.
James admitted there is a ‘massive contrast’ between the upcoming series, and joked one part in particular could ‘finish Clarkson off’.

He added: ‘We’ve got some interesting cars to drive.
‘There’s going to be a massive contrast with this east European one.
‘Where we’re going next is quite tough, with camping, which might finish Clarkson off.
‘Hammond will love it because he loves camping. I’m pretty excited about it because it’s a bit of the world I’ve never been to, it’s slightly dangerous and edgy.’
Meanwhile, Richard admitted the three presenters ‘really enjoyed’ the European trip.
He said: ‘I think we had some real moments of genuine friendship and joy when we were making each other laugh properly.

‘And I think it’s going to be compelling to watch. It’s lovely when three people who have known each other that long can still reduce each other to tears of laughter.
‘That sounded a bit soppy but it’s true. There were some really spontaneous moments.
‘There were certain scenes where we knew there would be something there, but we didn’t know what, and it just unfolded naturally, which is lovely.
