Thought this would have been mentioned on here already.
David Leslie ex BTCC driver was killed in the plane crash yesterday down south.
He was always good entertainment on track and off in his post race interviews!
Spooky thing is Jimmy Mcrae is at Knockhill today trying to organise some sort of Memorial to Colin.

It has also been mentioned but not confirmed that John Clelland was also in the plane. I hope its wrong.

going by the ages of those involved (but not yet named) this looks unlikely.
