I think it would have been better to hear him talking. Would have also been nice to see him with other drives like Richard Burns. But still a good job. At least he died doing something he loved.

edit: you spelled Michael wrong in the filename :p

I always thought these rally drivers/co-drivers are the bravest in auto racing... going 100km/h on the side of a cliff with no guard-rails...

True, my hats are off to them...

This is really tragic. Instead of following the results online over rally weekends, I like to wait and watch the rally wrap-ups Sunday nights on Speed, so I was shocked when this was announced. My condolences to Park's family and to Markko Martin. I support whatever Markko decides to do for here on, but as he is one of the best drivers, I do hope he can find it in himself to get behind the wheel of a WRC car again.

WRC = FIA World Rally Championship, possibly the greatest form of car racing there is. And unfortunately, one of the most dangerous. Think souped-up economy cars flying down twisty and narrow mountain and forest roads at high speed.
