@@shaun2363 Well I've read the coroner's report. He killed his five year old son, another child and friend. This was found to be through pure recklessness, and you could argue, self indulgence. He is branded as a hero by you people, however I would argue that. More like one who neglects the life and safety of others, including his own son, which is included in the report.
Brundle in his prime was huge talent. Raced the shit out of Senna in the same car. I still think he is the best driver to never win an F1 race ( that includes Heidfeld, Bellof and Warwick) .. The fact young Michael really destroyed him still amazes me.
I had the privilege of watching Colin McRae drive in the WRC during his one-off appearance for Skoda during the 2005 Wales Rally GB. It was an honor to see such an amazing legend drive. The spectators went wild when he screamed past us. RIP champ.
projectilequestion He also cost the lives of 2 others. One a 6 year old child. He was unlicensed and found to be flying recklessly and too low in too dangerous a terrain for his level of experience. I have to say. As much of a hero as he was to me, I'm afraid I can't muster anything beyond anger at him for what he did. Had he survived the crash he would undoubtedly have ended up in jail.
It wasn't proven he caused the crash, so stop speculating senselessly. The footage they had ended a minute before the crash, so it's unknown whether he made a mistake or had a mechanical issue that brought him down. A witness said the helicopter dropped down like a stone, which points towards a mechanical failure of some sort. As for his license, he was flying regularly since 98, so that's completely irrelevant. He had a ton of experience flying the thing. His license has expired just some months before the crash, so it's not like he suddenly forgot how to fly because of that.

Most of the rally drivers use the slide to slow down the car and position it correctly to take the turn, they use less brakes because of that and control the car with the throttle and the amount of slide. "the best way through the corner is if you slide your car on the entrance, but don't slide on the exit" - this was said by a famous rally driver (not sure who it was) And you can notice even today that MotoGP drivers drive that way, but their slide is less obvious compared to rally driving
Awesome guys, Colin and Martin. I love Colin's, Jackie Stewart's and David Coulthard's Scottish accents. I don't know the distances between Milton, Twynholm and Lanark, but these three guys have so much different accents. Oh, and the 1996 Jordan was beautiful.
Jackie doesn`t speak with accent. David used to speak without accent too at first but when he became a star he started to speak with some quasy-accent. Only Colin was speaking with thick scottish accent barely understandable. Its funny that young Niki Lauda used to speak with scottish accent.
I admire and appreciate his driving style, I just wish I was as fast as him with that style. He might be the last old school driver, driving the car without the car telling him what to do. He reminded me of Ronnie Pettersson.
"Occasional nervous smiles from McRae look more like deliberate attempts at bravado than genuine pleasure.... It's a rare taste of what it's like being thrown at the scenery when there's a maniac at the wheel" ))) Brit English is a poetry for ears. Love Martin's commentaries for that on the SKY.
Does any one know when did he say: "IF IN DOUBT, FLAT OUT".....?? I really want to see a video of Colin saying that... Can any one help me out with this?
+Granattaaaaaa No he doesn't. Before we are conceived, God gives our soul a choice whether we want not to age or not look like a gnome. Eddie chose the former.
the interview with him at the end is surely a more contemporary one than the actual film itself, see he talks about colin in past tense. Also he hides a lot of his age due to being totally bald and wearing very expensive hairpieces.
all the greats have that talent for speed. kimi was good at ralley so was kubica until he crashed. msc was at least decent with motobikes not having trained on it since early age. walter röhrl smashed dtm but didn´t stick to it. and afaik bandini raced bikes and switched to f1. rossi and marquez also did well in f1 tests.
The gravel has such little grip the car would understeer like crazy. It´s faster to get the back ´round as early as possible and get the power down out on the exit.
I don't think so. I'm not 100% sur,e but I haven't personally heard or seen anything about Colin McRae being offered an F1 seat. I think he was in Le Mans one year though, although I can't remember if that went well or not - brilliant rally driver though :)
I've been searching for some years for a videotape about Colin and the Subaru that I used to watch as a kid, but haven't found anything on TH-cam yet. Does anyone Knows its name? As I remember Colin raced this Jordan, this piece of the vídeo probably comes from that videotape. Thank you.
The FIA have been hostile towards rally drivers takeking to the track in F1. When red bull sponsored RBR and Citroën WRC Loeb tested and they wanted him to race. The FIA wouldn't grant him the licence. Im sure the test he done was catalonia and he'd have been 6th on the grid with his times.
One has to wonder what Colin's checkers-or-wreckers style would have really done with a downforce-heavy open-wheeler, where you're rewarded for flat out speed with more grip...
I really want for the current WRC to add some good publicity like the old days. Rally drivers driving in a different motorsport discipline. all we have right now is Theirry Neuville driving a Hyundai Electric i20 Endurance car and that was no fun
