Έφυγε από τη ζωή ο Colin McRae

Έφυγε από τη ζωή χθες ο παγκόσμιος πρωταθλητής του WRC, Colin McRae, όταν συνετρίβη το ελικόπτερο στο οποίο πιλότος ήταν ο ίδιος, λίγο πριν προσγειωθεί στο σπίτι του στο Jerviswood. Εκτός από τον Colin McRae, τη ζωή τους έχασαν άλλα τρία άτομα που επέβαιναν στο ελικόπτερο, μεταξύ των οποίων και ο πεντάχρονος γιος του. Rest In Peace Colin!
