They do not state how they know....

Did see Ben Collins do a stunt or 2 of top gear before. he drove an open top car and his mate parachuted in to it ... about 3rd attempt.

As a company we used to sponsor Ben in ASCAR ... I thought he was in the States driving NASCAR or similar.

It was....but he was exposed, or chose to expose himself in his biography as I understand it so they killed him off and got a new stig. The new (white) stig is Ben Collins.

Not gospel but check out wikipedia.
