- 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.

Perfect dirtfish perfect, what a special young man he was . RIP Craig ❤
One of the best vids of dirt fish iv seen great to remember a great person
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! ❤
❤️🇮🇪
Well said 👏
@Dirtfish what a film! Colin and Elliot, you should be very proud of yourselves for filming and producing such a moving eulogy ❤️
Thank you dirtfish, Craig is sadly missed by all of the Irish rallying community he was something special and his love for rallying will be remembered forever #42 💚🤍🧡
For the Belgian rally community too. We saw him several times at our rally’s where he was always attacking at a high level. And such a friendly guy, a real Irish man. You guys can be proud on such a sportsman and amazing person. We think about you folks 🇨🇮🇧🇪
Well this made me cry. RIP Craig and God bless
Yep same here
Well done DirtFish..you got that perfect..👍 “The Mayor of Brattby” #CB42🇮🇪
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.
Hard to watch without a tear in my eye. Rip
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. 🇮🇪
Craig will always be remembered always
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.
Ireland needed Craig .. from a huge rallying country we were on a high waving on our man 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪☘️☘️thank you team Dirtfish for keeping it all alive 🙏👏
Long time coming and a very much needed tribute to Craig . A disarmingly humble and likeable chap who passed in such abrupt fashion. Great tribute from Dirtfish team and thank you to everyone at Dirtfish 🙏👍🏼👍🏼
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.
Craig Breen..
Always Missed..
Never ever forgotten..
WRC never will be the same. 😢
Colin and team, very very very emotional video, THANK YOU! It’s so nice that You did this. Greg was wonderful ambassador for this sport and a true enthusiast. Legends never die. Greetings from 🇫🇮
Absolute class DirtFish - an amazing film that pays tribute to CB - The Mayor of Brattby. Well done.
Thank you Dirtfish, this special means a lot for rally fans! RIP Craig😮💨😮💨 good job Colin!
Thank you DirtFish for this beautiful tribute.
Craig Breen embodied the spirit of rallying. He will never be forgotten and will always be in our hearts.
Ah God. I cried when he saw his Mam & Dad. It's still shocking to think he's gone. A terrible loss, then and now. Probably your best moment with this video Dirtfish 👏 🇮🇪
Last year was the first year I actually followed wrc closely and I'm glad I got to know Craig Breen. Beautiful soul. Big inspiration. Thank you my friend. Gone but never forgotten.
Beautiful Tribute to Craig Thank you from Ireland
Thank you Colin Clark&dirtfish. Great tribute to the most passionate man in WRC. Legend CB42
This video brings up all the tears again from the day we heard about the loss of Very loved Craig Breen!! #forcraig
Amazing tribute, just beautiful. Craig was an amazing driver and clearly a great person. Greatly missed. And this was one off, if not his very best drive. I'm sure the name Brattby will remain a part of the rallying folklore for many, many years.
As a side note, I just found out one of the typical blue IKEA bags is also called Brattby! I can imagine Craig putting it on his head and pronouncing himself the King of Brattby :D
It’s so heartwarming to see how much Craig is being celebrated. He was just an incredible driver and person. Still can’t believe he’s not with us anymore. Sad to not see him on both the WRC stages and Irish Rally stages here too. He’s so greatly missed 😞💚🇮🇪
Brilliant Colin, well done Dirt fish thanks for this and thanks Craig for all the memories RIP Craig #42 never forgotten.
Mammy’s here❤. Great video.
Stops everything mammys here some man
Absolutely brilliant. Loved this. Told the story brilliantly. Sport is both wonderful and cruel. In one moment we see the best of humanity and in an instant it can be taken away. Massive kudos to Rally Sweden for renaming the stage. Craig is still missed by all.
Never be forgotten a true legend, hard to watch wrc with out Craig Breen, always 100% committed but still able to smile and joke RIP Waterford legend ☘️
WOW 😢😢❤❤ thank you guys so much for making this! Just extraordinary! Craig is so missed! What a carachter! 🎉🎉
Very well done a great tribute to Craig. He never lost his excitement and thrill of driving a rally car. Dearly missed
Beautiful, respectful video of a man who will be forever engraved into Wrc wall of fame. You brought me into tears and thats the evidence how we loved this guy, RIP Craig.
Well Colin Clark, Probably the best Dirtfish article you have ever done, Brilliant and just perfect tribute to Craig.
Thank you Dirtfish a beautiful piece on a wonderful Irish Legend. Rip Craig
What a beatiful homage. Here's hope he's still rallying, wherever his spirit may have come to rest ❤
Colin-thanks for putting together this beautiful tribute to the King of Irish Rallying. RIP Craig
"Dont let anyone put you down, because you only know your true potential"
RIP Craig, you'll always be forever missed in the paddock
Always in our rally hearts ❤ Still remember how happy I was that the team order didn't play out and Craig got his SO deserved second place
Others have said it all, so I'll just repeat the salient points. Thank you, DirtFish media team for an _outstanding_ tribute! And thank you, Craig Breen, for sharing your heart with us!
Well done Colin. The best filming Dirtfish has ever produced in my opinion. A very hard watch. WRC hasn’t been the same for me since we lost Craig last March. Boy does the rally community and particularly the Irish Rally Community miss this legend. A fitting tribute to the Mayor of Brattby. #CB42🇮🇪
I’m remember watching this live and what a sight to see Craig Breen flying the car through the snow❤️ Legend
Well done Dirtfish. That was some piece 🥲
That fella Craig is sorely, sorely missed. Long live The Mayor of Brattby.
Thank you Colin and dirtfish what beautiful memories I was gripped watching rally Sweden 2023 and had such high hopes for rally Croatia for Craig. Alas was not meant to be. Still feels unreal he is no longer with us. Missed so much 💚🤍🧡
And for Dirt Fish to do this show l thank you awesome 15 minutes of Memories 😢👏👏👏👏
Thank you, DirtFish. Beautiful tribute to the Mayor. Craig Breen; never forgotten.
Beautiful piece about a beautiful human being, thank you Dirtfish, and thank you Craig Breen. R.I.P Bud
Thank you for this beautiful storytelling. I spent last night looking at all of the clips of Craig I could find to relive last year’s magic and to wake up to this video is a true treat. Craig was quickly becoming a favorite of mine. His passion is something I admire and I frequently find inspiration in his words, demeanor, and positivity.
Superbly put together by dirtfish. It summed up Craig so eloquently. We will indeed never forget him. A massive loss to Irish and world rally. A gentleman and a hero to so many. #42
Beautiful tribute. Hard to not get emotional when his parents showed up and hugged him. Absolute legend may he rest in peace.
A wonderful tribute to an amazing talent! i was lucky enough to meet him in 2015 in North Wales and what a lovely young man he was RIP
The "dont let anyone put you down..." phrase is very strong, and i helped one certain non-rally person, using exactly craigs words, to get back on track, and now "she's on rails". There is something about this text that makes you raise you head up even if one doesnt know the background. Great driver, but also great mentality
Wow thanks Colin for a brilliant video and presentation Thanks Dirtfish for making this wonderful memory of Craig as an Irish rally fan Craig meant the world to us I was so lucky to have met him on a number of occasions at Irish rally's he was such a gentleman and a true legend of the sport I was lucky to get one of his Breenie hats there on Wednesday. Go raibh maith agat Craig Mayer Of Brattby RIP #42 Never forgotten.
Beautiful. This rally could not go by without remembering the legend of an amazing young man who was never afraid to say how he felt. Such a big loss to everyone in rallying it's hard not to shed a tear. Well done dirt fish.
Great job dirtfish. I will miss you forever craig. Thanks for the memories ❤
Amazing work to pay tribute to Craig. RIP ❤
That was a great video I will always remember Craig breen and that event of rally Sweden
Love this Colin, a perfect tribute and great to see the much missed, and never to be forgotten Craig so happy !
A smashing young man from a smashing family. The world would be such a better place with more Craig Breen’s in it. Sadly missed 🇮🇪 ❤️
A lovely tribute to Craig, thanks for putting it together so well.
it's time for you breen thank you so much
Fantastic job Colin and Dirtfish. Beautiful tribute to Craig. Impossible not to cry watching it.
Thank you for making this video
Best Dirtfish clip iv seen In ages who ever thought of this hats of. Its still a tough thing to take Craig was a fans favourite. As a fellow Irish man it's great he gets the respect. So thanks dirtfish Craig given the car could of went onto win events like Sweden last week. Its a shame we won't see. But emotional great video hats off
Wow that was an emotional tribute to the amazing Craig Breen, thank you to colin clark for doing such an incredible job i’m sure it wasn’t easy for you guys

How Nice Of Yiu To Remember Dear Craig This way!!! Well Done and This Rally Sweden Was For Me The Turning Pount In Craigs Career THE BECOMING Of The Man And Rally Driver!! r.I.p Tc uk
Man this had me near 😢 again 🤦🏻♂️😅
Well done people what a lovely piece to the Mayor him self
Yo lo conoci en persona en el WRC de Argentina.... Un Tipo agradable, talentoso, es una perdida muy grande.... Pero tengo su autografo en una remera..... Por siempre, en el recuerdo.... Fuistes un grande..... 😢❤
Gosh I miss him. I really wanted to see him back at the front to show how good he was. At least he had the chance to show it one last time.
I bet a lot of racing drivers would be too proud or macho to break-off from an interview with "wait a second, Mammy's here," but he knew life's real priorities. Big heart, unquestionable passion, serious talent. Top guy. RIP.
Love you Breener, Keep her lit up there. Such a proud irish man ❤❤
Beautiful feature. Thanks Colin and DirtFish ❤️🩹
Very well done boys, well said and well told. Craig will be missed.
Brilliant video, great respect to you and your team for this. RIP Craig.
Well done DirtFish... Thank you for a beautifully captured tribute to Craig.. Take a bow Colin it was always very clear to see you and Craig's special bond and you have once again done him a fantastic honour...
Go deo inár gcroíthe, bíodh suaimhneas agat Craig beidh tú i gcónaí inár gcraobh #CB42 💚🤍 🧡 ☘️
He really silenced every doubter that rally and he got his joy back.
Taken away from us so young
Falta Breen un grande.😢Mario Arg.
Incredible video, outstanding tribute to an unbelievable hero. 👏
PLAČEM JER KAD GOD JE NEKI RELI ŽELIM NAVIJATI ZA NJEGA A NIKAD GA NISAM UPOZNAO OSIM KROZ NJEGOVE VOŽNJE 😢❤RIP
I just got into rally a few weeks ago, so I’d never of Craig before, but this brought a tear to my eye. The man seemed like an absolute sweetheart, I’m so happy he got to have one last legendary rally before the end ❤️
Now that left me in tears #42 ❤
thans Dirtfish Team for this, thanks so much
Great memory of Craig. He was really a special driver and a bigger man. I still remember his passion and seeing his smile after that special stage where he smashes everybody will be the memory of him forever. Rest in peace champion
A beautiful tributed to Craig, showing his emotional soft side and a drive not to be put down nor must not be forgotten RIP.
