A short finale for Coulthard in Brazil last year
David Coulthard bowed out of life as a formula one racer near the top of a Scottish sports rich list.

After 15 consecutive seasons, the 37-year-old still collected (US) $13 million in 2008, Scotland's Sunday Mail newspaper claims.

Earned through both his Red Bull retainer and sponsorship deals, as well as investments such as his Monaco hotel, it put Coulthard second on the Scottish high-earners list to the 21-year-old tennis player Andy Murray ($18.2m). In position three is golfer Colin Montgomerie, with 2008 earnings of $7.4m.

The only other race driver on the list is Dario Franchitti, whose $3.
78m was earned before the Ganassi NASCAR team shut down mid-season. Chris Hoy, the newly-knighted Olympic cyclist, ranked seventh with his $3m.
