Eddie Jordan poised to join Chris Evans and Matt LeBlanc for new-look Top Gear

Former Formula One team owner Eddie Jordan is set to join Chris Evans and Matt LeBlanc as a presenter on Top Gear.

Jordan, a close and longstanding friend of Evans, is understood to be close to finalising a contract to join the new-look BBC2 motoring show.

The 67-year old has been part of the BBC’s Formula One presenting team alongside David Coulthard, who Evans was also keen to bring on board.

However, Channel 4’s move to snap up the Formula One has freed up Jordan, although the broadcaster did move to sign Coulthard which eliminated him from potentially joining Top Gear.

An insider said Evans and Jordan had known each other for decades and his expert knowledge would be a major asset for the show.

The BBC declined to comment but it is understood that a deal is almost certain to be finalised in the coming days.

This version was looking like being free of an unbearable little elf...no longer the case it would appear!
