The Stig Unmasked?

A forumer over at Gen[M]ay’s Photography and Imaging forum was out for a bite to eat when he chanced upon the filming of Top Gear and the STIG!
To the uninitiated, the Stig is Top Gear’s test driver. The driver who gives cars reviewed on Top Gear a faceless but thorough whacking on Top Gear’s test track.
He didn’t remove his helmet until he was driven off. They managed to get a side profile view of him. Any idea who he is?
