This photo combo shows an undated file photo of the driver for the BBC motoring programme Top Gear "The Stig" left, and Ben Collins seen at the High Court in London Wednesday Sept. 1, 2010. The opaque visor of one of Britain's most famous helmets has been lifted. The identity of The Stig, the always-anonymous test driver on "Top Gear," the wildly popular British television show about cars, has long been kept secret. The BBC had asked Britain's High Court for an injunction blocking the publication of an autobiography revealing The Stig's identity. But lawyers for publishers HarperCollins said Wednesday it was not granted. The publishers said in a statement that "Ben Collins has a great story to tell about his seven years as The Stig."
