Two former rally car champions are racing this weekend in Dunfermline.
This weekend marks 20 years since Colin McRae won the World Rally Championship. Knockhill racing circuit is holding a 2 day event to mark the event, featuring Hannu Mikkola and Stig Blomqvist. It will also feature a parade of cars McRae raced in during his nearly 30-year career.
McRae died in a helicopter accident in 2007, which also killed his son and two family friends.
Hannu Mikkola was active in international rallying between 1972-93 and two years after joining Audi, won the 1983 Driver’s World title achieving four wins and three second places. He said:
"It’s always nice to get back behind the wheel of an Audi quattro rally car and never fails to bring back special memories for me. Scotland has always been a favourite place of mine to rally in the UK, and I have been fortunate enough to do really well there too. It’s also great to support this event and celebrate a fantastic achievement in British motorsports and remember what Colin accomplished in the sport."
