Jeremy Clarkson has shared his two cents after the BBC cancelled the next series of Top Gear.
The 62-year-old previously worked on the show but, in 2015, the BBC elected not to renew his contract.
He went on to sign a deal with Prime Video with James May and Richard Hammond to host The Grand Tour.
Jeremy and the other two presenters were replaced by Freddie Flintoff and Paddy McGuinness.
The BBC recently announced that they won't be resuming any filming for Top Gear following its investigation into the accident that injured Freddie.
He reportedly told friends he is 'emotionally and physically affected by the crash' and is unable to continue his hosting duties at the moment.

After hearing the news of the cancellation, Jeremy took to his column in The Sun to share his thoughts on it.
Writing about Freddie, he said: "I can quite understand why he would choose to do something else in future."
Jeremy continued: "I do hope, however, that my old mates who run the show can find a way of saving it.

"Because in these days of soft and cuddly eco-madness, we need programmes like it more than ever."
Meanwhile, BBC Studios has apologised to Top Gear presenter Freddie Flintoff following its investigation into his filming accident in Surrey and said it will not resume production on the latest series of the show.
The statement added that the corporation “will continue to support” Flintoff, who presents the show alongside Paddy McGuinness and Chris Harris, “with his recovery”.
It also said: “Under the circumstances, we feel it would be inappropriate to resume making series 34 of Top Gear at this time.
“We understand this will be disappointing for fans, but it is the right thing to do, and we’ll make a judgment about how best to continue later this year.
“This has also impacted the production team, who we continue to support.
“Finally there will be a health and safety review of the show, in line with our procedures.”
