The car that Freddie Flintoff was driving when he suffered his near-fatal crash Top Gear crash was not responsible for the accident, the vehicle's manufacturer has said.
The ex-England cricket captain, 47, was behind the wheel of a Morgan Super 3 at the Dunsfold Park Aerodrome in Surrey in December 2022 when it flipped during filming.
He was travelling at just 22mph at the time, but the three-wheeled car was open-top and he was not wearing a crash helmet, meaning his face scrapped along the tarmac.
The incident left him with serious facial injuries and broken ribs, effectively ending his presenting career on the now-axed BBC motoring show.
Speaking publicly for the first time about the crash, Morgan Motor Company chief executive Matt Hole has now insisted that the Super 3 was not to blame.
