Top Gear's Matt LeBlanc has admitted that the chemistry between the presenters could \"take a while\" to reach the heights of their predecessors. <\/p>\n
Following the departure of Chris Evans after just one series, LeBlanc will host the revamped BBC show with Chris Harris and Rory Reid. <\/p>\n
However, reflecting on Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May's run on the show, the host said (via SNAP.PA): \"What people forget is for the three guys that were on the show before us, it took them a while to build up a rapport. <\/p>\n

\"This is now the first season for the three of us and it does take a little while. <\/p>\n

He added: \"You take the three people, put them together in a room and say, 'It's in your interest to get along', and everyone is open to getting along but it takes a little while to speed up the shorthand. <\/p>\n
\"But what's great is we are now getting to a point where we are really starting to click. We are having so much fun together!\" <\/p>\n
LeBlanc and co are set to return to the show in a few weeks' time, and the BBC has already given us a trailer showing the three hosts' sitting uncomfortably through a car insurance interview. <\/p>\n
While LeBlanc decided to stick with the show for two new series as he had \"such a great time\" filming the first series, it was not the case for Evans. <\/p>\n
The Friends star previously told Digital Spy that he found out that Evans had quit through the news in the paper like everyone else. <\/p>\n
He added of expectations for Top Gear: \"I'm excited [for the new series] but the show seems to be surrounded by huge controversy, and I don't really know why. Maybe it's because of the history of the show but boy, being on that show is like being in a fishbowl. Everybody is after you. <\/p>\n
