The BBC apologized Friday Feb. 4, 2011 to Mexico's ambassador for remarks on its "Top Gear" program that described Mexicans as lazy and oafish. The remarks came in a segment in which presenter Richard Hammond claimed that cars imitate national characteristics. "Mexican cars are just going to be a lazy, feckless, flatulent, oaf with a mustache leaning against a fence asleep looking at a cactus with a blanket with a hole in the middle on as a coat," he said. Presenter James May mocked Mexican food, while Jeremy Clarkson suggested the ambassador would be too busy sleeping to register his outrage.
