Congratulations once again to Sebastien and his team.Everyone remembers the PSone differently, and that’s perhaps the beauty of it. We 'Murricans need to see what real driving is all about. We also hope that Colin McRae can convince Loeb to come out to the U.S. But on a serious note, we've been hearing rumors that some networks are working on acquiring the rights to broadcast these WRC events in the U.S. No, flying cars can't hold a candle to stereo installations. SPEED channel - the "home of motor sports" - unceremoniously dropped the series so that we can see an East Coast shop install stereos into the cars of spoiled NBA players and rappers. Unfortunately, it is hard to see any WRC action here in the States. You won't see a more action-packed motor sport. WRC drivers take high-powered cars - similar to the ones you see on the street - and fling them through mud and snow, always flying them over jumps and occasionally rolling them down cliffs. Well, WRC is the second-most popular motor sport in the world. So why do we bring this up? After all, we know that many of you don't care about an international race that was won by a Frenchman in a French car (Citroen Xsasa WRC).
But again, as most of you are reading this from the comfort of the U.S., there's a good chance that most of you are not keeping track of this man's wins. That's 28 wins for those of you keeping score at home. One more cool rally fact about Loeb - he holds the record for the most wins of any driver in the WRC. Even more impressive is the fact that Loeb was able to snatch this season's championship despite missing two rallies (Turkey and Australia) due to a broken arm. Loeb is only the third man in the history of the series to ever win three consecutive WRC titles.
