I knew he\'d been ill, but I thought he was fully recovered.

RIP man. I haven\'t kept up with the WRC in a while but he was one driver I liked to watch.

Yeah, proper sad times.. he will be sorely missed.. and from my avatar you would see that i was a big burnsie fan.
i was lucky enough to be there to watch him blast through the welsh forests in 2001,
when he sealed the world championship.

RB will allways be in my thoughts.. and my heart felt condolances go out to his family and friends. may
they find the strength to deal with such a sad turn of events..

Oh shit. I was hoping he\'d pull through and recover. I have the old 1997 WRC video and it had both Colin and Richard talking about the British Rally.

RIP Richard.

I might just get my car painted in the Richard Burns Subaru color, blue metal gray.
