 S.L. 

  • Sébastien Loeb is the greatest driver in the history of traditional rallying, having won nine WRC titles with Citroën between 2004 and 2012. In addition to his long reign, the Alsatian has also shown his skills in the WTCC (3rd in 2014-15), the 24 Hours of Le Mans (2nd in 2006), and Rallycross (4th in 2017-18). His achievements also include a gold medal at the 2012 X Games and a victory at Pikes Peak in 2013 in a Peugeot 208.
  • The former gymnast took on the Dakar challenge in 2016 and immediately became one of its leading figures. Having finished on the podium five times in nine appearances, Loeb also ranks sixth in stage wins in a car (28). Runner-up in the 2022 World Rally Raid Championship, he has two rally raid victories: the 2022 Andalucía Rally and the Morocco Rally in October 2025.
  • The French motorsport legend, who will compete in the Dakar for the 10th time in 2026, has yet to win the world's toughest rally. After attempts with Peugeot, PH Sport, and BRX, he now intends to triumph with Dacia, both in Saudi Arabia and in the world championship.
  • At 51, Loeb remains one of the most active drivers on the planet. In addition to the five rounds of the W2RC, he has recently taken part in events such as Red Bull Motormania, the Rallye Charlemagne Golden Palace, the Ultimate Cup Series, and the Rallye du Var. A hectic schedule? 'It's part of how I relax,' jokes the quinquagenarian, whose determination remains intact.
  • Loeb ended the 2025 season by winning the Rallye du Maroc, his second W2RC victory after the 2022 Andalucía Rally.
