You think? Judging by McRae's temperament and driving style, you're surprised he may have been dicking about in a helicopter?

No disrespect to him of course, but since he died people do only seem to remember his good qualities, of which there were many. But I still don't class him, personality wise, the same as the likes of Richard Burns.

I recall some footage from one of his videos, he's on a dirt bike with his daughter sitting on the handlebars and he's pulling wheelies. Neither are wearing helmets.

I did get the feeling of him being reckless in that situation, but surely he must have recognised the dangers and the consequences of arsing about in a helicopter.

I remember the weather being really bad that evening.

Mmm, always thought burns came across pretty smug tbh, was saddened when he died though...
