Some say that he solo'd a BoB fleet, and that his bones are made of veldspar. All we know is that he is called the... wait, wtf? The STIF?

You're all wrong.
Stig is in fact Oliver Reed; he faked his own death and absconded to a macro-biotic health farm next to a go-cart track in Nether Wallop where he developed a taste for motor sports.
Obviously a star of Ollie's quality would have upstaged Clarkson et al on Top Gear, so the helmet and steely silence schtick is a contractual obligation so that the seriosuly outclassed JC and his servile minions can keep their (currently classified top secret) paychecks.
The fact that he is somewhat shorter as The Stig than he was in his heydey, is testament to Mr Reed's continuing devotion to the mastery of his craft.

I think there's a high chance it is an ex-british F1 driver. Which one though i do not know, perhaps Damon Hill which would make sense that he never says anything.

One theory (that I'd agree with) is that it's a different driver every week/few weeks. If you recall the drive across africa, theres a few who think that was Lewis Hamilton. So it might not be "ex" racers...

Kind of a stupid question but wouldn't they post the name in the credentials at the end of the show?

I'm not sure why, but the impression I got pretty early on, was that Stig might be his actual first name, rather than just a nickname.
(Stig is a fairly archaic Scandinavian first name)
considering everything though, I doubt it's that easy.

He's credited, as a presenter, as "The Stig".

Black Stig was Perry McCarthy (ex-f1 and Le Mans driver, read his book "Flat Out, Flat Broke")
White Stig varies, but Ben Collins, ex-F3 driver is the most likely suspect.
Some say his toes point to magnetic north.

Black Stig was Perry McCarthy (ex-f1 and Le Mans driver, read his book "Flat Out, Flat Broke")
White Stig varies, but Ben Collins, ex-F3 driver is the most likely regular suspect.
Heikki Kovalailenn (ie, F1 Mclaren driver, ex-Renault driver/tester) was apparently the Stig for when they had the F1 R24 lap the track.
All hints have said it's not an F1 driver, as all f1 drivers who've done the track have used a different line to the Stig, with comments like "clearly he's not an f1 driver" made.
Some say his toes point to magnetic Veldspar. All we know is he's called Chribba
Actually, Mansell took Stig's line... and oddly all the F1 drivers are slower than Stig (though Hamilton could likely best him if Hamilton had more practice). Anyways, a bootleg vid showed a very brief clip of White Stiggie talking and he definitely had a Brit accent.
That's assuming the Stig doesn't rotate among a pool of drivers... who knows? It's more fun not knowing, tbh.

Ok, I admit it, I am The Stig.
Chribba and Nigel Mansell stand-in for me from time to time.

One can not ask who The Stig is, one must ask WHAT The Stig is.

Oh well, at least I could pretend for a while!

Like ...... Neo is the ONE
Stig is the Gits????
However i have my own theory on this one that its Nigel Mansel, as J. Clarkson almost slipped up a couple of times especially when they had Mansel as a guest a couple of years ago.

Some say he was involved in the cash for honers scandal, others that he blinks sideways...
All we know is, he's called Lord Stig.
