i was looking under rallying...
From another forum :
quote:
reports that him a co-pilot and two children on board. Not confirmed just someone who said his friend works in emergency services call centre. Although he did mention Mcrae before any news outlets did so not looking too good
oh dear
really not looking good at all.
On Sky it says 2 adults and 2 children on board. Sad news who ever it is.

This is shocking news. It is a sad day when you realise that your heroes are only mere mortals after all.
There is nothing confirmed so far but its not looking good. The crash happened on his own land in lanark according to sky news.
Sad sad day thanks for the memories (rothmas legacy in 4 wheels slides all those years ago on the ulster, pure magic, never to be seen again)

"The Scotsman" is saying that friends and relatives are gathering closeby which looks pretty negative to me.
If true thats Hislop and McRae both gone due to helicopters

F*ck
Just read that his son as well...
That is heart-breaking news! I can hardly take it in...
I hope it wasn't his son who was on board because as a father myself I can't imagine a worse way to go than alongside one of my kids.
A sad sad day indeed.
Im gutted
bollox

ar$e isn't even close....
It's the most shocking of getting older: one by one your heroes die.
Bad enough two adults died in that crash, but two young chidren aswell...
Tragic.
I'm sorry, but..

saw the news this morning, don't know what to say..................
My two fave drivers of all time, Colin McRae and Ayrton Senna, now both RIP.
My heartfelt sympathies to Colin's family.
On a lighter note, which may sound inappropriate, but lets hope they have cars in heaven, I'm sure Col and Senna could have some fierce
races!!
I met colin in Monte Carlo on the 2003 monte rally, he really was a great bloke, what you saw was what you got, the best.
gutted, proper shite news. RIP
it is with a heavy heart and the deepest sadness i mourn the death of the man i called king for 15 years. marred by trajedy of your son who will now
be by your side for ever. you will be missed more than you will ever know. maybe not a drivers driver but more than any other, a fans driver. had the
good fortune to meet you and nicky grist a few years ago, unforgettable. i will never forget the donuts after the win at chester race course, once in
a lifetime experience. all those chants of co-lin co-lin in the frozen forests of wales, england, scotland and too many to mention european places
seem all the more worth it now. i will always be priveledged too say i was there and i saw, the legend that was COLIN MCRAE.
goto colin mcrae.com there is a book of condolence.
I don't think I ever saw him without a smile on his face or a glint in his eye, he was a great sportsman and it's a sad loss of him and his friend and sons.
