Clarkson, May say Hammond okay

Top Gear stars Jeremy Clarkson and James May say they've visited with co-presenter Richard Hammond following his serious accident earlier this week, and they're confident he'll be okay. "I've had a conversation with Hammond today," May said. "Not a long one, but it was a conversation [...] I'm not a doctor but I am his mate and I believe that deep inside the Hammond I know is perfectly intact." Meanwhile, Mr. Clarkson reports a similarly encouraging encounter. Clarkson says he jokingly told Hammond, "the reason you're here is because you're a c driver." The injured Hammond then reportedly smiled at Clarkson. "It was an amazing moment, very moving," Clarkson said. Hammond's condition has been downgraded from 'serious but stable' to 'stable.'
