James May and Richard Hammond might leave TopGear because Clarkson is an over paid turd.

James May (according to the article) doesn't seem too concerned, so I'm not worried yet. It would suck, however, since, while I like Clarkson, I like May and Hammond more... and the bantering between the 3 of them is really what makes the show most enjoyable I think...
but then again, I really can see why it would be an issue... the three of them should get paid "AROUND" the same amount... I realize Clarkson has been around for longer, so his could be slightly higher, but if he's the highest paid guy on BBC and the other two aren't even in the top 10 or whatever, it wouldn't make any sense, and I'd probably think about leaving too.

Dude...I hope not. That would suck. I love the way they interact with each other.
