The former presenter of the show has spoken out after filming was suspended after Freddie Flintoff's horror crash.

Speaking out after Flintoff's horror smash, Hammond said: “I think with all shows occasionally things go wrong. You’ve got to mitigate against that as best you can – and then hope. There are dangers to anything." The Amazon Prime star, who now hosts The Grand Tour with Jeremy Clarkson, went on: "You can fall off a ladder.”

Series 34 was halted following the crash, reports BirminghamLive.BBC Studios said it had “sincerely apologised to Freddie”. A source said: “Fred has been left utterly traumatised and shell-shocked by this entire episode. You cannot underestimate the ­physical and mental toll this crash had on him. He could have easily sued BBC Studios - and perhaps got considerably more from them - but instead agreed to settle privately, with as little animosity as possible.
