Tributes poured in from the sporting and political arenas in honour of McRae, who in 1995 was the first Briton to win the world rally championship.
Scottish police said the 39-year-old driver, who was a licensed pilot, his son Johnny and two family friends including a six-year-old boy were killed in the crash in the grounds of McRae's home in Lanark on Saturday.
"We believe that the group were just returning from a visit to the nearby village of Quarter around 1605 (1505 GMT) hours yesterday, when it appears that the helicopter got into difficulty and crashed within the grounds of Mr McRae's family home," Chief Superintendent Tim Love of Lanarkshire police said in the statement.

I hope him and his son rest in peace.

wow, that guy was like, the only rally driver who everyone knew the name of.. plus, I used to play the games with his name on the on PS1 and shit heaps back in the day..
rest in peace

I've got 04 for PS2. I used to be really into rally and F1 now it's more F1. RIP.

This is terrible, he was amazing. His son died with him as well, it makes me really, really sad.

On a less depressing note, Rally is fantastic! more Americans need to start getting into it. The WRC is some of the best action you can watch!

Rest in Peace Colin Mcrae and son and others

Damn. RIP

Very tragic. Rest In Peace!!
