Even for those of us who onlt take a passing interest in motorsport Colin McRae was a well known name. 5 yr old son also in the helicopter. Sad news.

Re: Colin McRae Killed IN Helicopter Crash

Sad news, I used to follow his progress, was one of the best rally drivers ever in my opinion, there was a poll on here once asking who was the best and they never mentioned Colin for some reason

Edit - found it, THIS (World's Best Rally Driver) is the poll

He was a brilliant driver, I saw him a few year ago in the World Rally Championships in Cyprus. Amazing!

Re: Colin McRae Killed IN Helicopter Crash

This is getting all spooky now, his old boss who was in charge when he won the rally championship in 1995 has also just crash landed in a helicopter, he and his wife walked away unhurt.
