Jeremy Clarkson and Jeremy Piven are both listed as voices in the IMDb database, but only Piven is listed in the movie credits.

From the Trivia section:

The voice of Lightning McQueen's agent Harv is provided by Jeremy Piven who also plays Vincent Chase's agent in the TV-series Entourage (2004). The UK release featured the outspoken Top Gear (1978) host Jeremy Clarkson as the voice of Harv.

Would have been even funnier if he'd done it in his original Yorkshire accent!
