Any update on Richard Burns?
Colin McRae was quoted a few weeks ago as saying things look a bit better for Richard.
Any official word on how he's doing? |

This is the most recent from his website:
"Robert Reid has been spending time with Richard and comments: "I know Richard wants to thank his friends and fans for their continued support; he has received so many good wishes - it's really been amazing. At the moment Richard's channelling all his efforts into getting through the treatment which is obviously proving both physically and mentally challenging. However he remains positive and is in a really good frame of mind." Richard would like to thank everyone for their ongoing respect for his and his family's privacy." Whatever, we all have our fingers crossed for him still, great bloke. |

Guardian has also a story about Burns. Man has had (and still does) a tough fight.

Good piece in Autosport this week about Richard and he's sounding upbeat.

that Guardian article was a real shock to me, because I had never realised the illness was so serious. I mean, it was obviously serious but reading that was still quite a shock. But it's great news that his recovery is going well. All the best to Richard, he's a great driver but I think it's fair to say that his life is infinately more important than his career. Good luck to a very brave man.
