I can't believe this. Not so long ago (a couple of years) Richard Burns dies of cancer. Now this. I am very saddened by this.

Condolences to his family.

RIP Colin.

Sorry, for those who don't know, Colin was the first British WRC champ, won his title in '95 driving for Subaru. Top guy, always spoke his mind. Always exciting to watch.

Oh my God. Can't believe this, he was a bit of a hero of mine growing up.
