Sébastien Loeb testing with the Puma

 

Le Toyota Gazoo Racing étant sur le chemin de la Finlande après la sortie de route d’Elfyn Evans ayant privé Sébastien Ogier de test, seule l’équipe M-Sport était encore dans la région de Gap pour mener des essais. Après Gus Greensmith et Adrien fourmaux Tuesday, Craig Breen Wednesday, it was Sébastien’s turn Loeb to settle into the Puma hybrid. Although some technical problems sometimes stopped the Rally1, the Alsatian was able to complete several kilometers allowing him to deepen his knowledge of the car and its hybrid system in particular. With the rain falling overnight, the session started on a soaked road, which gradually dried out with the appearance of the sun. The English commando was thus able to evaluate the behavior of Pirelli tires in several conditions. About his future and the possibility of seeing him evolve in WRC on a few rounds in 2022, the nine-time champion preferred not to speak. If he can't say anything, it was rumored around the team that an announcement could be made soon. The answer regarding the possible participation of Seb Loeb in Monte-Carlo should not be long in coming…
