Jeremy Clarkson, who has a financial stake in the series 'Top Gear' wishes it to do well so that he can earn more green notes.
The 56-year-old former host of the show has recently denied claims that he wants the new series, which is being fronted by Chris Evans to fail as he gets paid every time the show gets recommissioned, reports News24.com.
Clarkson said what's very entertaining is that Evans is having a very hard time at the moment as he attempts to put 'Top Gear' back together again, adding that it is being suggested that he is behind it and is trying to scupper him.
He further said that every time the show gets recommissioned, he gets paid and it's a part of his BBC contract.
