    Dear friends,
    I don't like to write too many things in public, but today is the time to do it. Back in Hyundai days I used to catch all the drivers in every rally evening and shortly brief them on what is expected during next day and how it might influence their driving. In 2021 Rally Finland (Autumn edition), it was very gray day. Low clouds, quite cool weather and felt like it starts to rain in any moment. I told in my lunch report that there might be some low sun coming out for the second half of the final stage. And I reminded it ca 30 minutes before the stage. It was still all gray and low clouds.. and 10 minutes before the final stage, sun came out and it was proper low sun for final half of the stage… So, in the evening I found Craig from hospitality with his „family-friends-supporter gang“ all in one, really nice group of people. When I went close to table, Craig immediately noticed it and asked before I started to talk about next day weather. „How on earth you knew that sun is coming out just before the stage and you said it already before noon service! This is impossible!“ And then he started to explain the story to his friends. I just re-played something like „lucky guess“ or smth. Don't remember exactly. The main idea here was that Craig was doing it always, he made you feel good and happy in his own funny way. And he enjoyed it when he managed to make someone feel good. We are a bit similar here, but I am not on his level yet!

    Well, Craig, I hope there were some brighter moments between rainclouds today as well, so you could jump on the side of Jaffa today. I am sure there was! I can already imagine how you too are making so many jokes up there that angels need to laugh so bad that tears are coming out from their eyes and it starts to rain down on the earth because of that. But please, try to hold back your jokes while our cars are on the stages… with hard tires

    And I will remember you by keeping up my positive attitude and try to infect others as well in service park!

    Rest In Peace dear Colleague!

    Only just seen the news. Very sad time for rallying.
    Craig's end of stage interviews will be missed. On his day he had the speed to be up there with the best. Thoughts are with his family, friends, & current and former team mates.
