The iconic trio known from "Top Gear" and "The Grand Tour" is officially ending. However, each of the presenters plans to continue their projects.

Rumors about the end of "The Grand Tour" have been circulating for many months, and May, Hammond, and Clarkson did not shy away from the gossip, implying that the great trio's time has passed. The official farewell will be the last episode of "The Grand Tour," filmed in Zimbabwe.

The British daily "The Daily Mail" writes about the matter, mentioning the official end of over 21 years of collaboration and the dissolution of the W. Chump and Sons media company, which brought together the presenters.

Each of them, however, intends to continue their television careers by pursuing individual projects. Clarkson with "Clarkson's Farm," May with culinary-travel shows, and Hammond in the series "The Great Escapists" co-created with Tory Belleci from "MythBusters."

Does the farewell to the incredible trio mean the end of "The Grand Tour"? Not necessarily. There is no shortage of rumors in the British media about the continuation of the show, albeit with different presenters.
