He said they felt they had "exhausted" the format and were keen not to "overstay their welcome", preferring to bow out while viewers still loved the programme. Mr May explained that the production company behind The Grand Tour had wound down last year and that, for now at least, there is nothing concrete on the table to bring the three presenters back together on screen. Looking back on their decision to end The Grand Tour with the 2024 special One For The Road, Mr May said the trio had always tried to follow a simple bit of showbusiness wisdom. He added that, for all the high‑octane stunts and globe‑trotting adventures, the real challenge had been knowing when to stop. But if you go on too long, you do end up flying it into the cliff."
