TO promote the appearance of Top Gear Live at the Newcastle Metro Radio Arena this weekend, The Stig visited St James' Park, home of Newcastle United, for a training session.
But while he is used to boots, engines and working his way around the box, they are more usually associated with the supercars he drives around the Top Gear track and not a football pitch.
See how he gets on above.
The Stig will be joined by Richard Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson and James May on Friday, Saturday and Sunday for a series of adrenaline filled performances.
Top Gear Live tickets start from £35 (subject to per-ticket charge plus order processing fee) and are available from www.livenation.co.uk.
VIP Packages including Ringside Seats available at VIPNation.eu/TopGearLive
