Quote:
It is with extreme regret and sadness that we have to report the passing away of Greg Strange founder of iRally yesterday September 26th.
Greg passed away peacefully yesterday following a short illness. He is survived by his wife Eiddwen and daughter Olivia.
The family said this morning “We are deeply shocked that Greg has passed away, and are mourning his huge loss to us all. He was a superb Husband and wonderful Father and above all a magnificent Professional Broadcaster and Journalist.”
The family also added “We have been touched already by the messages we have received, sharing our loss, from the World of Motorsport and Broadcasting, a beautiful indication of the regard and warmth in which Greg was held, and in tribute to Greg we can confirm that with the support of good friends and colleagues iRally will continue to function in testament, and as a tribute to a wonderful person.”

Greg Strange remembered
The FIA European Rally Championship extends its sympathies to the family and friends of Greg Strange, the broadcaster and journalist who passed away yesterday.
Greg was a regular on ERC events over the years, most recently on Barum Czech Rally ZlÃ*n at the end of August.
He pioneered live radio broadcasting from rallies, while his company plays a key role in delivering the ERC Rally Radio service enjoyed by thousands.
A passionate follower of rallying in his native UK but also throughout the world, Greg’s career in sports reporting spanned several decades and brought him into regular contact with a number of notable people.
