Burns 'doing really well'
Richard Burns
Burns was diagnosed with a brain tumour in November
British rally driver Richard Burns has told his fans "not to worry" about him as he battles with a brain tumour.

The 2001 world rally champion has been forced to miss this season after undergoing chemotherapy for the illness which has put his career under threat.

Co-driver Robert Reid said on Thursday: "He's worried that everyone is worrying about him. He's in remarkably good spirits and doing really well."

Reid added: "He said 'Tell everyone not to worry'."

Burns' brain tumour was discovered when he was sent for tests after collapsing at the wheel of his car last November.
