Sad news as sporting legend Rally Car driver Colin McRae is today feared dead after a tragic helicopter crash yesterday. :(

McRae was a former World Rally Car champion and also achieved much wider fame by endorsing a range of successful video games throughout the years.

.

Police can not confirm this yet until they identify the bodies during the week, but apparently it was him flying the helicopter.

Sad times. :(

If he was piloting the copter himself, I assume he died. :(
It seems that his son was there too, and it is a shame. :(

I'm surprised that I haven't heard or seen more about this. I figured this to be front page news on Yahoo! and MSN but it wasn't until I logged on here did I find out about it.
