"Richard was a friend and at the same ▨time a very fierce rival," McR💯ae confirmed.
"We had many great battles together, notably the 2001 Ra🍒lly GB when he took the [world rally] championship.
"I have seen Richard on a number of occasions during th💦e past two years and the greatest battle he has put up was against his illness.
"Richard was a true character in the world of rallying and will be sadly missed as a competitor and a friend to many people. My thoughts are with Rꦺichard, Zoe [his pღartner], his family and all his close friends that have supported him during the last two years."
