This made me laugh!
Mexico's ambassador in London has complained to the BBC over "offensive,
xenophobic and humiliating" comments made about his country on Top Gear.
Eduardo Medina Mora has written to the BBC about "insults" made by Richard
Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson and James May.
Discussing a Mexican sports car, Hammond said vehicles reflected national
characteristics so "Mexican cars are just going to be lazy".
The BBC did not comment but said it would respond directly to Mr Mora.
Reviewing the Mastretta on Sunday's show, Hammond said:
"Mexican cars are just going to be lazy, feckless, flatulent, overweight, leaning
against a fence asleep looking at a cactus with a blanket with a hole in the
middle on as a coat."
The presenters, known for their edgy jibes, then described Mexican food as "refried sick".
Clarkson said he was confident he would not receive any complaints about
their comments because the Mexican ambassador would be asleep.
However, the ambassador did complain, and demanded an apology from the BBC..
