richard will be sadly missed by by the world of motorsport as well as his family, an excellent rally driver, not to mention the fact he was a genuinely decent guy.
many of us will never forget the battle of the british. burns v mcrae.

I will always remeber meeting him on the grizedale stages a good few boxing days ago. he was in a 205 GTI at the time and he had outstanding car control.
Will be greatly missed in a characterless sport now, bar solberg.
A bad year for rallying with Michael Parks untimely death earlier on.
Burnsy, thanks for the memories.
One sidenote, for the last few days we have had to put up with endless mentions of a footballer who drank himself to death, wasted millions and ruined a life.
While a true world champion aged 34 who had to retire due to a serious illness gets a 5 second slot on the news. The world gets on my T@*s sometimes
