You’d reckon Clarkson is the Host, the main Host, he has more solo segments and basically the show just wouldst work without him.
The other two are kinda like Co-Hosts, of course they do their share and Hammond would be hard to replace, the other guy hasn’t been around for the full length of the show. I don’t think they will walk no matter what but with any job you increase the products worth substantially you should get a pay rise.

You say that, but I reckon you would also think it unfair that Clarkson gets a reported 1 million pounds a year to host, while Hammond and May get a reported 15,000 pounds an episode say 150,000. Is Clarkson worth 6 or so times as much. He is Good value, but they all are. It is not good. It breeds bitterness and dissentment. If it becomes too much for these guys, they will walk, just as you would, if one of your workmates was paid 6 times as much as you for the same job.
