Hall also confirmed that it was Clarkson who reported the incident to BBC management, adding that he "made a number of attempts to apologise to Oisin Tymon by way of text, email and in person".

"It was not disputed by Jeremy Clarkson or any witness that Oisin Tymon was the victim of an unprovoked physical and verbal attack," said Hall. "It is also clear to me that Oisin Tymon is an important creative member of the Top Gear team who is well-valued and respected.
Quote:
"On 9 March 2015, Jeremy Clarkson reported to BBC management that he had been involved in a physical and verbal incident with Oisin Tymon, the producer of Top Gear, at the Simonstone Hall Hotel, North Yorkshire, whilst working on location. The incident had occurred on 4 March 2015 and Jeremy Clarkson was suspended on 10 March, pending investigation.
.

So Clarkson admitted it was unprovoked and took full responsibility.
