Scotland has lost a national hero and the motorsport world - a man with extraordinary spirit. Rally legend Colin McRae along with his five-year-old son died in a helicopter crash on Saturday.

McRae became the first Briton to win the World Rally Championship in 1995. McRae was devoted to motor sport with his heart and his soul. He has taken part in Le Mans, Paris-Dakar and even piloted Martin Brundle's Formula 1 car.

McRae is extremely popular in the world of computer games. The first Colin McRae Rally was released in 1998 by Codemasters followed by the second release in 2000. The second release was available both for PC and PlayStation. The latest game DiRT's PlayStation 3 edition was released on 14th of September, day before McRae's death. All of the games were inspired by the legendary driver.

The world of motorsport will never be the same without McRae.
