I remember when he first appeared in the WRC and I was quite vocal about how I thought he didn't belong there, and even though he didn't excel in the competition I was very impressed with his actual performance and how he conducted himself in interviews. I had a new found appreciation of his driving technique and the care put into the gymkhana videos. I also became a fan of DC shoes. I was incredibly shocked and saddened to hear this news this morning. It's incredible how one man can reach so many be they skaters, car guys, gamers or youtubers.

A life well lived. Always remember him at the Donegal Rally a few years ago too


He didn't fair too badly either, much to the annoyance of some locals! "Doh-Nigall" I think he called it.

This just brought a tear to my eye.


Seem to have a bit of dust in my eye at the end there too.

Very poignant, especially the bit where she shakes her head.

Think we'll be seeing a bit more of Lia in the future.

I've kept an eye on her career, and she definitely has raw talent. Hopefully she can make it in the likes of F1, but also really hope she keeps rallying, too.
