I loved Colin McRae and was honoured to meet him a few years ago when he raced the Citreon rally car. Another great legend lost, RIP.

The term 'legend' is a bit misplaced is it now? It's a whitey a bunch of people died but no more so than if it happened to anyone else.

He's widely regarded as the best rally driver ever. If your a rally fan, he is a legend.

I'm not moved either way because I didn't know his personally and I'm not a fan of car racing and stuff, but aye It's a bit shit him and his 5 yr old son died

I was well gutted to hear about what happened. It was because of him that i got into rallying. He done really well for the sport, just a shame he didn't get more than the 1 world title. Sad loss to the sport and obviously my thoughts are with the families of those that died.

A can't think of anything more appropriate to say than that. I still have memories of getting to sit in his Subaru at New Lanark. What a guy.
