Colin Steele McRae, MBE (5 August 1968 15 September 2007) was a Scottish rally driver born in Lanark.
The son of five-time British Rally Champion Jimmy McRae, Colin McRae was the 1991 and 1992 British Rally Champion and, in 1995, became the first Briton to win the World Rally Championship Drivers' title.
McRae's Subaru won the World Rally Championship Constructors' title three times in succession in 1995, 1996 and 1997. After a four year spell with the Ford World Rallye Sport team, which saw McRae win nine events, he moved to Citron World Rally Team in 2003 where, despite not winning an event, he helped them win the first of their three consecutive manufacturers' titles. He was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire in 1996. McRae tragically died in a helicopter accident in September 2007 which also claimed the life of his son as well as two family friends.
