Why? McRae is arrogant and over-rated. He only has one driving style and that suited the mid-90's cars not the current cars where you have to be neat and tidy. I think that Richard and Petter will make a great team because above all else they'll communicate with each other which is vital in terms of developing a car.

McRae is arrogant
Whilst I've never met Burns, I've done a few shoots with McRae and can confirm he's, shall we say, not the most fun person in the World to work with, or be around.

As I knew his Dad, I first met him when he was about 6 years old. Even when they were younger, Alistair was the one with the personality.

On the driving front, I think Burns is a more complete driver than McRae - all three of them!

Cheers

I agree about Colin, never met the bloke but always seems 'up himself' IMHO of course. I remember seeing Richard on Top Gear and having water etc. chucked at him & laughing, can't imagine Colin doing that !!

Colin won't even acknowledge you if you are marshalling on test day in the rain. Costs nothing to be curtious.
