OPINION: Sebastien Loeb doesn’t have a World Rally Championship programme for 2023 – yet – but that didn’t stop him scoring another victory last weekend. It was another reminder of what the WRC is missing even as the Frenchman approaches his fiftiesSebastien Loeb hasn’t been snapped up by a World Rally Championship team for a part-time drive this year, but the phone may already be ringing again after his latest triumph.
Coincidently, Loeb’s victory arrived just hours before French television station Canal had scheduled the premiere of a new documentary celebrating Loeb’s career – Sebastien Loeb: Eternal Pilot. It’s a title that couldn’t be more apt since it seems the driver they call Le Maestro is showing no signs of slowing down and is set to continue to stun motorsport fans into his fifties.
While his display in the Azores once again underlined how he has lost none of his speed, at this moment it appears that Loeb could sit out the WRC this year. M-Sport declared interest in again signing him to a part-time programme after his impressive displays last year, when he led three of the four rallies he contested. But, as with most things in motorsport, it all comes down to funding and resources, and at the minute M-Sport is pouring all of its firepower into new signing Ott Tanak.
If Tanak is in the mix for the title come the end of the year, Loeb would be the perfect weapon to deploy to take points off rivals, and no doubt M-Sport will do all in its power to make that happen.
