Title: Rally champion Colin McRae dies in helicopter crash
Post by: Tuffty on September 15, 2007, 11:12:49 PM

THE former rally driving champion Colin McRae was killed and his five year-old son feared dead in a helicopter crash yesterday afternoon. The aircraft came down in Jerviswood, Lanarkshire, half a mile from the family's home and burst into flames just after 4pm. (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/more_sport/article2461339.ece)

That's so sad. His son and others died as well. He was one of the UK's most successful sportsmen and certainly the most well known and popular rally driver.

R.I.P. Colin. My condolences go out to his family and friends.

This is sad news indeed.
I know of Colin thru rally racing, of course, where he was a big name in the sport.

Condolences go out to his family.
R.I.P. Colin. :prayers:
