The Legend of Craig Breen: The Mayor of Brattby

Craig Breen's Rally Sweden 2023 is a story that will live long in the memory. One year on, we thought it was right to tell that story in its full context.

Colin Clark takes you on a journey through the Swedish forests, reflecting on that incredible weekend 12 months ago. This is the legend of Craig Breen, the mayor of Brattby.

I remember watching the battle live. Although I'm an Estonian i was sort of disappointed when Tänak took the lead at 2023 Rally Sweden. Craig was in the zone and the joy in his eyes in every interview that rally was so pure. It was so refreshing to see that after rough couple of seasons. And in an unfamiliar car too, my mind was 🤯.
It was devastating to hear about the accident.
RIP Craig Breen❤😢

I'm not crying, you're crying. Really thought that first win was on the cards for him.
"It's the mad hatter's tea party and we're all invited."
A personality and a character that can't be replicated. Thank you, DirtFish.

That family bit totally got me 💔. That feeling of happiness they were feeling of his success and knowing how they must have felt after everything, just horrible.
Wish you were still here to show your talent on and off the stage. 🕊️

I have been through the mill this week. Burying an uncle, spitting up with the love of my life, dealing with parents who are both 90+. Maybe it's a culmination of grief and hurt, but I honestly think that Craig was the epitome of Irish rallying and Irish stoicism as a whole.
I was drawn to tears watching this, so I thank you DirtFish for making the time and space to remember a proper, decent, real, honest, paddy legend! ❤

A beautiful, moving, intelligently and sensitively put together tribute. We all miss Craig on the stages, his comments at the end of stages and his true affection and passion for the sport of rallying. Thank you Dirt Fish team. Rest in Peace Craig.

[martindoherty]

Hey dirtfish. This might be the last Breen video. As an Irish person it meant so much to have someone representing us on the world rally stage, you guys always highlighted Craig. Thank you so much for doing that.

What an incredibly beautiful piece of videography...thank you Colin Clarke and all the Dirtfish team....you should be very proud, a beautiful tribute to Craig who is very much still in our thoughts. 🇮🇪

Hi guys, just want to say a huge thanks for this piece, as an Irish man we do miss him big time, best character that Motorsport has ever seen, thanks so much once again for doing such a fitting tribute. Even the very last piece he was doing an interview and said one minute mammy here, true Craig style.
