TopGear vs The Grand Tour – which one wins?
With The Grand Tour nearing its end, I think the general verdict has been resounding. Clarkson, Hammond and May have emerged victorious, largely by just doing what they’ve always done, in a style they’ve cultivated over decades of producing the world’s best car show. I refer to the pre-Chris Evans iteration of TopGear of course, not the latest one that flopped in the most spectacular fashion.

It was rather difficult to understand what you were saying, but from what I can hear I mostly agree.
Although I am less generous on the rating for the Grand Tour. I'd give it. 7/10 as it just still feels a bit too scripted.
While the old top gear is obviously a 9-9.5 and it was also scripted, the banter and incidents in the show felt significantly more natural. This is what TGT must get back to.
The Grand Tour is getting there as each episode is released, but it's just not quite there. Right now it may just be a little too "Grand". Hopefully the later episodes would bring it to 8-8.5 ish.
The new top gear being a 6/10 is pretty spot on, but it probably is now a 7 by default with the removal of Evans. "Joey" is doing a fabulous job, and give them a couple of seasons to build chemistry, it wouldn't be too shabby of a show at all.
So I agree with you, the outcome is we now have two great car shows to watch. Here's to hoping TGT and TG continues to find it's footing.

It is a big reveal that the BBC has not been able to top an independent show. What does that mean for the future of TV?

The main problem of new TG is that the hosts are very similar (like in TG US) all are the same wannabe teenagers. It just BORING. Three Jeremy Clarksons without any James May and Richard Hammond — no way.But Grand Tour looks just wasted. Especially Hammond who looks tired and overburned.
