      @Paul Not that it really matters if they are friends or not but in the interview you're referencing James May actually just says they're not best or close friends.
      "Some people think we live in a big house together with our cars parked outside. But that’s nonsense. We don’t really hang out with each other."
      "We don’t speak or text on a weekly basis because we don’t need to."
      “There are people that you like arguing with and like having them there for the purposes of interaction and debate and stimulation, it’s that rather than, ‘Let's go for a pint together and play Dominos’.
      “I like seeing the other two because they wind me up.”
      “There is a rapport obviously, it wouldn’t work if you didn’t have that.
      “But, we’re not friends as in you're friends with your old school mates, your gang you’ve grown up with for many years.”

      As pairs they have differing grievances about the third. Clarkson and Hammond gang up on May because they think he's boring and old-fashioned whereas Clarkson and May gang up on Hammond because they think he's uncultured and crashes too often. Hammond and May gang up on Clarkson because he's obsessed with power and going fast and because he doesn't think before he acts. Clarkson knew May prior to the Top Gear 2002 revival, then worked with Hammond for a full season before May joined the revived show in series 2. Hammond and May's friendship would've developed somewhat during the car vs race segments, especially as a result of having to deal with with Clarkson's gloating.

      Honestly if you're someone that grew up watching Top Gear and any other content involving these three, I think who your favourite is changes with age, as it did for me. I think when you're a young kid, Hammond is the one that would appeal to you the most; the most outwardly charming of the bunch (and the most kid and family-friendly media personality of the bunch, you may know him from other shows too) with a lot of obviously funny lines and imaginative, if a bit silly ideas. Then as you progress to being a teen, you start to prefer Jeremy and his loud, brash, contrarian, no-nonsense and inconsiderate approach to... everything. I think though as you grow past that into your 20s etc., you do start to realise that not only is James the most intelligent and well-rounded of the bunch, but yeah his humour, his one-liners and stories are just amazing, in a way that might go over your head (again, as it did for me) when you're younger.

I remember getting his Toy Story dvd set and watching him on top gear. I love all three of them but James is in simple terms a genius. I would probably bore him with the questions I would ask but the knowledge that man has and the way he holds himself is something I have always respected about him.

    Two of my three favorite hosts every of Top Gear. Their rapport was unparalleled. They made that show. And each of them on their own have made outstanding content on Amazon. May's automobile histories are excellent, Hammond's engineering documentaries are awesome, and Jeremy Clarkson is always a joy ;-) I remember a soliloquy he did while driving a Porsche 928, and recalling how he had one when he was making a frantic drive to see his Dad when he was on his death bed. I'll never forget how he tied things together in that manner.
