Colin McRae...........

Lots of motor sports fans on The Bored who will be especially saddened.....

British rallying hasnt had the best of luck!! First Richard Burns dies at such a young age and now McRae!
Feelings go out to his poor wife! To lose a husband and 2 such young sons is a true tragedy! :(

The other young boy was little Ben, 6 years old and an absolute tragedy for Mark and Karen and his big sister Carley. Ben was dropped off to play with Johnny on the quad bikes. To all that are involved may God look after them and give them strength for the future to come.....

Re: Tragedy

His former boss from when he won the World Championship survived a helicopter crash as well yesterday returning from the Belgian Grand Prix! He left earlier that usual because of McRae's death.

Being rich enough to own your own helicopter is probably that that great! :blink:
