Colin McRae, the youngest man to ever win the World Rally Championship drivers title, sadly left us on this day in 2007 when he was killed in a helicopter accident near Larnarck in Scotland. He was 39. McRae's five-year-old son Johnny, and two family friends, Graeme Duncan and Johnny's six-year-old friend Ben Porcelli, also died in the crash.
Here's a picture of McRae from happier times two years previously, when he took part in the Race of Champions at Stade de France in December 2005. He was part of a proudly all-Scottish Team Great Britain alongside Formula One's David Coulthard, who at the time was in his first year at Red Bull Racing having just moved from McLaren at the start of the year.
