It was a bad day for the Top Gear franchise overall, with UK presenter Richard Hammond involved in a four-car pile-up near his home in the village of Over, Gloucestershire, about midday local time on Saturday.
Hammond was reportedly shaken but uninjured in the accident, which trashed his treasured $220,000 1930s-style Morgan AeroMax, capable of reaching a speed of 273km/h.
The 39-year-old is no stranger to accidents, having survived a 450km/h crash in a dragster while filming for the hit BBC show.
