A brand new website has been launched for the Richard Burns Foundation.
The Foundation was set up at the 2006 Goodwood Festival Of Speed in honour of the 2001 World Rally Champion, who died in November 2005 as the result of a brain tumor, after being in a 'medically induced' coma for many days. Burns was diagnosed with the tumor at the of 2003, shortly before Rally GB. Richard was driving his Porsche 911 when he blacked out. Markko Martin, who was in the passanger seat at the time, managed to get the car stopped & then took Burns to hospital.
The website includes comprehensive details about the Foundation, future objectives, information on how to get involved, details on the people the Foundation has helped & a calander announcing upcoming events.
Double World Rally Champion Marcus Gronholm as been appointed Patron on the Richard Burns Foundation & now has his own blog section.
A 'your stories' section has also been added, as well as a gallery & a section about Richard himself.
More information can be obtained via e-mail: info@richardburnsfoundation.com.
