The father of former world rally champion Colin McRae today said that it was "ironic" his daredevil son died just yards from his front door in a helicopter crash.
Jimmy McRae, five-time British rally champion, spoke of his grief at losing his son, who was killed when the helicopter he was flying went down in the grounds of his Jerviswood home, about a mile north of Lanark, at 4.10pm on Saturday.
The 39-year-old's son Johnny, aged just five, also died in the accident at the weekend along with six-year-old Ben Porcelli, of Lanark, and Graeme Duncan, 37, who lived in France.
