Has anyone heard anything about Richard Burns this morning, I heard some bad news but dont want to go starting rumours.

Yeah, just heard that he passed away this morning. It's so so sad, he was only 34 and had such a great career so far and such a bright future. RIP Richard.

I heard it on the radio this morning and i couldn believe it was true. I still cant believe he has passed away. He went into a coma the other day and never came out of it. Its another dark day not just for rallying but for sport in general.

Someone correct me on this if im wrong but i believe it was 4 years ago yesterday when he won the world title.

Greatest memory i will have of him is watching him over here in 2001 in punchestown. He was spectacular to watch that day.

Deepest condolences to richards family and friends and may he rest in peace.
