it's not Schumacher, that was just one episode to take the piss with the "who is the Stig" thing.
Schumacher in the Stig suit clearly did not look the same as the regular Stig does..

Schumi was just there to drive the ultra-rare and insanely expensive FXX. They don't let just anybody drive those things.

Reliable sources say that the Stig is Ben Collins, former British Touring Car competitor.
The dude can drive, for sure.

The Fxx program is pretty cool. Pay $2.5M and the factory stores the car, maintains it and puts on track days so the owners can drive it. Roger Penske is one of the big buck owners who are in on the deal.
