That sucks. If I ever become famous I am going to drive everywhere. If I have to cross an ocean I am taking a ship.

That's a real shame. I can't imagine his wife's and daughter's pain. The motorsport world has also lost an amazing talent. It's horrible!

I first heard about it when watching the MotoGP race last night. I DVRed it since I was at a track event all weekend. Rossi mentioned Colin's passing and how sad he was to lose one of his heroes during his post race interview. Classy
