Jeremy Clarkson and friends announce new social network

23 November 2016

Clarkson, Hammond and May have been busy since they were let go by the BBC in March 2015.

With the trio recently having aired their first episode of The Grand Tour, they have also announced another new project – DRIVETRIBE.

Drive Tribe positions itself as a “digital hub for motoring.” It will host video, articles, social media and interactive content, which will be organised around “tribes” with a unique tone of voice, reports Business Insider.

“Clarkson, Hammond and May will lead “tribes” on the platform, while Schmitt expects to launch in November with “thousands” of other tribes.”

“Racing driver Oliver James Webb, motoring journalist Jethro Bovingdon and Finnish blogger Sara Nase are among those on board.”

These tribes encompass everyone from Land Rover owners to racing game enthusiasts meaning there’s something for everyone even remotely interested in motoring.

Currently the site is in closed beta, and is set to launch on 28 November.
