Really sad, his 5 year old son was on there as well . Its really sad, he was really awesome in the mid-late 90's when he was racing for subaru, towards the end he wasnt doing as great and started venturing off into other races like the Dakar rally. Hell, he even ran a Ferrari Marannello in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. We lost Richard Burns on now Colin McRae.....

RIP McRae's...
