Don't they change the Stig every few years?

I'm almost certain I've seen him take his helmet off for a big reveal before!

(please note that I didn't bother to read the article)

This is the second stig afaik, the first one was sacked because he told people who he was or something like that.

From the article:
The Health & Safety Executive report into Hammond's accident in September 2006 recorded that Collins had "worked closely with Top Gear as a high performance driver and consultant" and had prepared a briefing for the presenter.
And:
The first Stig, stunt driver Perry McCarthy, lost the job after outing himself in his book Flat Out, Flat Broke, published in 2002.
Did neither of you read it?!
