BBC/Clarkson/Wilman own the rights to the Stig character, and I doubt they would have allowed him to write a book as The Stig.
I think he's really shot himself in the foot with this.
He's not going to get paid any more to race because he was the Stig, and now he's lost that steady stream of income too.
He knew when he signed the contract that he could not reveal his identity.
Bottom line is he was hired to play a character. He didn't own the character.
That's why we bought "I am The Stig" t-shirts, and not "I am Ben Collins" ones.
