Richard Burns.
« on: April 27, 2005, 09:48:24 am »
WRC driver Richard Burns underwent brain surgey to remove a tumour yesterday.

So far, so good.

Best wishes and good luck.

Yep, never made a fuss.   Hope Richard makes a swift recovery! All the best.  Be good to see him make it back into the driving seat if he can, maybe prodrive might take him to Le Mans  ;D

Has been rather quiet of late, hope the op & all the chemo/radiotherapy go well & he's soon back out & about (autosport report he got worse in the last few weeks, hence the operation)

The WRC hasn't been the same the last year & a half without any brits driving in it...<sniff>  Hopefully Guy Wilks will get a seat in a Suzuki next year??

Get well soon Richard.  The operation appears to have been a success according to the BBC.  Look at

Here's a picture of one of his cars, fully retored to mint condition. I think its from the Asia Pacific series.
