Top Gear: First look at Matt LeBlanc, Chris Harris and Rory Reid as they film the new series
These first images show there's plenty of laughs going on as the BBC2 show returns with a new trio in charge

“Doing Top Gear is absolutely wicked!” says Chris Harris about being back for his second series. It’s hardly surprising when he gets to look cool behind the wheel of a Ferrari.
Looking a little bit more pensive as he gears up to drive a Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet at Mammoth Mountain, California.
Soon the Californian snow is flying with Chris behind the wheel of his convertible.
Matt, on the other hand, is all smiles. “I think it’s going to be a great series,” he said. “We are all perfectionists and everyone who works on it is really pleased.”
“We are all very competitive but something has clicked in my brain which says ‘I refuse to lose. Win at all costs’. I learnt that at the end of the last series when both of these guys cheated at the long jump challenge! From that moment my mind-set changed,” says a very suave-looking Rory.
Although he has completely and utterly lost his cool with Sabine in the driving seat. What has she just said to make him pull that face?!
For when six wheels just aren’t enough… This is what happened when Matt took to the water in an eight-wheeled Russian articulated vehicle as he drove it through a lake on the Isle of Man.
Back on dry land, we’re presuming Matt is giving some enlightening insight into just how massive those tyres are.
Matt quickly swapped the glamour of the Isle of Man for the backdrop of California to try out a Lamborghini Huracan Spyder. And looked far more Bond-esque in the process.
Meanwhile there’s yet more banter between Chris and Matt as they share a joke trackside.
Top Gear returns to BBC2 on Sunday March 5 at 8pm.
