Burns Takes World Title
Richard Burns has become the 1st Englishman to win the World Rally Championship!!! He needs only to drive the road section back to Cardiff to collect his prize.
Well done Richard, and Robert Reid. And well done also to Marcus Gronholm for a dominant victory in the rally. |

Great to hear, and well deserved after the heartbreak of last season.
Mystery now surrounds where Burns heads next season. Rumour has it that Subaru had a clause stating that if Burns won the title, then he would have to remain with them and not take his 4.5 millin dollar paycheck and move to Peugeot. Let's hope this doesn't end up in the courts. |
