She also talks about her favorite cars from the series.
Clarkson is my favorite driver of all the boys,” Eaton stated. Clarkson has an excellent track record in British GT racing. He is very decisive on track. He doesn’t fear going sideways, and he attacks.
Eaton revealed in the same interview that her favorite car on the show was the Lamborghini Huracan Performante. She said that the supercar was “so much fun, so shouty and theatrical, and it makes it make you smile every time you drive it,” It’s loud! Eaton said that Manifattura Automobili Torino’s reborn Stratos was her most challenging car to drive around the “Eboladrome”, and that the Volkswagen up! GTI was her most boring car, she said. The future involvement of Eaton in The Grand Tour is still up in the air. For its fourth series, the show will abandon its studio format. This means that the test track won’t be featured.
At the beginning of the second series, she was the resident test driver and replaced Mike Skinner. The 1995 NASCAR Truck Series champion, known as “The American”, lapped 19 cars in his short time on the show. The Aston Martin Vulcan was the fastest car and the Abarth124 Spider the slowest during his tenure.
Both of these were outdone by Eaton, with the McLaren Senna topping charts with her behind it, and the soggy lap in front! GTI was her slowest.
